Portugal has reported more than 25 consecutive days of intense heat, with temperatures reaching or exceeding 35 ºC. This climatic phenomenon has put significant pressure on summer crops, impacting the agricultural sector.
Despite the adverse conditions, forecasts for the productivity of summer crops have not changed, according to available information.
The expectation is that the rain predicted for next week may relieve the situation, bringing potential benefits to the crops and helping to mitigate the effects of the drought.
Experts are closely monitoring the situation, awaiting the impacts of the announced precipitation, which could be crucial for the recovery of the harvests.
