Record heatwaves and chronic water shortages are shrinking maize harvests, forcing some farmers to abandon the crop and reshaping a region long seen as a pillar of European grain production. The impact is most evident in Hungary and Romania.

SOUTH AFRICA IS SET TO HARVEST ITS LARGEST GRAIN HARVEST ON RECORD We are still early in the season, but the recent crop forecasts suggest that South Africa is likely to have its largest summer grain and oilseed harvest on record in the 2025-26 production season. This is on the back of the expansion in area plantings and the large yields due to favourable summer rains. The data released by the Crop Estimates Committee this afternoon places the country’s 2025-26 summer grain and oilseed harvest at 20.8 million tonnes, up 2% from the previous month, and 1% up year-on-year (y/y). This monthly and yearly improvement in the overall harvest is underpinned by upward revisions to major grains and oilseeds, particularly maize, soybeans, and sunflower seed.

🌾 French farmers are growing crops and electricity on the exact same field. Smart solar canopies float above the plants, tilting in real time to shade them in heatwaves and shelter them from hail. ☀️ Better harvests, less water, and a second income from selling power. ✨ #omgfacts #France #SolarPower #Innovation

Mercosur is the kiss of death for our European farmers As of the Green deal wasn’t worse enough leading to overregulation farmers now also have to deal with unfair global competition. Hungary and Ireland have said no tomorrow in Brussels. Europe must choose: 🧑‍🌾protect its farmers 🧑‍🌾or outsource food production and lose strategic autonomy. The choice is obvious.

Our priority, as a Government and as a people, is to ensure this region (Latin America and the Caribbean) remains a zone of peace. But while our priority is for the region to remain a zone of peace, we are also conscious of the impact of transnational crime, drug trafficking, and other forms of illicit activities—and the impact they can have on our people, the region, and our economy.

As the largest reservoir on the Colorado River hits a record low, the Trump administration is weighing major cuts to water use in the West. It's a moment of reckoning in the drought-stricken region as seven states struggle to agree on how to share the rapidly shrinking water supply. In 2021, Bill Whitaker spoke with a fourth-generation Arizona farmer whose allotment of Colorado River water was being cut by 70%, forcing him to leave 150 acres of farmland uncultivated.
