Due to France’s worst drought in history, reservoirs have dried up in many of the country’s communities, leaving their inhabitants without safe drinking water.

French farmers have declared a high food risk. Due to the severe drought in the villages there is no one to water the plants, there is a lack of water for the animals. This was announced on Sunday, August 7, in a Reuters publication.

Meteo France, the national meteorological agency, said yesterday that the country was experiencing the worst drought since weather records began in 1958. Experts did not rule out that the heat would intensify, and that rain would still be very low.

Reuters Referring to the country’s Ministry of Agriculture, he wrote that this year’s corn harvest will be 18.5% lower than in 2021.

Drought will also affect livestock production.

“The lack of fodder due to the drought means there could be a shortage of milk in the coming months,” said the French National Federation of Farmers’ Unions.

Power company EDF last week cut power to nuclear power plants in the southwest of the country due to high water temperatures in the Garonne River and issued warnings for reactors along the Rhone River.

Water consumption restrictions apply to almost the entire French mainland.

By mid-July, temperatures reached 40°C in large parts of the country.

In the south, several forest fires broke out during this period, the largest of which devastated approximately 21,000 hectares of forest in the southwest.

Recall that in Britain, due to abnormal heat for the first time in history, the sources of the River Thames dried up.
