In Northern Greece, farmers are grappling with severe drought conditions, which are significantly reducing crop yields. Giorgos Ioannidis, a local farmer, reports that production has dropped by over 50%, failing to cover rising costs. The harvest, particularly of cotton, corn, and wheat, has concluded earlier than usual and with disappointing results due to extreme heat and water scarcity. Farmers are advocating for a reduction in the production threshold required for government subsidies, seeking a 30-40% decrease to receive necessary support and sustain their livelihoods.
