Freezing Temperatures Threaten Belarus' Strawberry Harvest
Unseasonable Frost Strikes Belarusian Strawberry Farms A recent cold snap has hit strawberry farmers in Vitebsk, Belarus, hard. Temperatures plummeted to -5°C overnight, leaving many fields covered in frost. One local farmer, Andrey Nikolaevich, documented the damage to his crop in a short video posted online. "The strawberries are frozen," he stated in the video, while also expressing cautious optimism due to the low-lying flower stalks. The incident highlights the vulnerability of agriculture to unpredictable weather. While the full extent of the damage is still being assessed, the frost serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by farmers in the region. The Belarusian Ministry of Agriculture is currently assessing the situation and considering potential support measures for affected farmers. The coming weeks will determine the long-term impact on the strawberry harvest. Despite the setback, the spirit of resilience among Belarusian farmers remains strong. Many are taking steps to mitigate further damage and are hopeful for a successful harvest later in the season.
