Unprecedented cold spell in Cyprus destroys potato crop:

Potatoes fall victim to war and weather

A frost wave in March is unprecedented.”

It has also proved deadly.
“Approximately 70 per cent of aggregate potato production in Cyprus has been destroyed and the crop left relatively intact is of subpar quality,” he said.

Drought in the wheat growing areas of USA has latest USDA Winter Wheat crop condition estimates at worst in 10 years. China also claims their wheat is the worst on record. Ukraine/Russia not exporting.

Hard Red Winter wheat is nearly half of the overall US wheat production.

Multiple breadbasket failure.

Blizzard incoming for US, not good for producers:

“farmers are weathering yet another challenge as they prepare for a blizzard that could bring 50 mph winds and up to 30" of snow.
Central North Dakota seems to be the bullseye for the blizzard, with forecasts showing that area could see more than two feet of snow, along with winds that could cause white-out conditions.

“After these calves get 2’ of snow dumped on them and then it stays cold, it's hard,” says Langley. “It's going to be hard to keep them healthy. It's going to be hard to keep things alive.”

I’m hearing from many Iowa corn farmers - heart of our corn belt - and the prognosis is not good.

Recall the analyses I’d shared about USA needing a bumper crop for the world to avoid global shortage. A bumper crop is NOT happening for a number of reasons...

Farmers left heartbroken as Queensland floods ruin crops

Shoppers warned the price of fresh fruit and vegetables will rise after latest rain event

Farmers who risked planting after the February deluge lost entire crops and face financial ruin after the second deluge.

Lockyer Valley’s mayor, Tanya Milligan, said crops were rotting in the ground and 90% of insurance claims have been rejected.

“A lot of those farmers were hoping and depending on that (insurance payout),” Milligan said.

“We will have farmers that have no intention to replant. You have people that have just lost absolutely everything and they will be wondering is it all worth it?

“Unprecedented” Summer Snow Hits Afghanistan; Similarly In India And Pakistan, Rare Mid-June Freeze Delivers Heavy Snowfall; + Unusual Cold Sweeps Namibia

Unprecedented and heavy snowfall has struck central Afghanistan which, at this time of the year, poses a threat to young livestock and tender crops.

Residents in various towns and villages of Bamyan province have reported snow down to an unusually low elevation, even as the calendar reads summer — unprecedented in at least the last 20 years.

Greenland's Surface Mass Balance (SMB) explodes far beyond multi-decadal range — media silent!

In other words, adding ice when seasonally it should be melting. This is one of the latest onsets of melt on record.

Here is the clip from Prof. Richard Werner warning that as central bank currencies fail, they must move to a new digital (#CBDC) model so people don’t take back their power with local currencies. This same play is happening with food: as toxic big Ag fails, they poison the food supply, claim rainwater is toxic, and use weather warfare — it is techno-salting the fields! (Not to mention the #GrandSolarMinimum).

Australia: flooding damages $150 million of wheat alone in NSW

Agronomists say the grain-growing hub of the north-west is expected to have "conservatively" lost more than 120,000 hectares of wheat that was nearly ready to harvest.

The region also boasts large barley and canola outputs and is in the summer planting window for crops such as cotton and sorghum.

“this ongoing wet weather with flood after flood after flood is just unbelievable."

Unbelievable losses, particularly when the world is already short on #wheat and other grains…

“There are many impacted farmers who will be cash poor and without an income as a result of this flooding, and that has caused widespread economic pain across rural areas,"
