Rain or more expenses

If rain will not come, autumn sowings may be in critical situation, and the fate of spring seeds  will be in a critical situation as well. According to meteorologists, weather will be more volatile in the near future, but it still does not compensate the lack of soil moisture.

Runaway prices, livestock and food industry insolvencies will follow the dry weather. Inflation will oincrease as well.
Extremely dry water situation occurs – described Tóth István, secretary of  the Agricultural Cooperatives and Producers Association the current agriculture situation. The ground water is one meter below the average and the water is missing from the upper layers. Farmers can just pray for rain, because irrigation water is not available, only 100 thousand hectares can be irrigated out of 4.3 million hectares.
