Agriculture Ministry urges heat protection for animals and crops
The Ministry of Agriculture, Water Resources, and Fisheries is calling on farmers, livestock breeders, and fishermen to take strict measures to confront the rising temperatures, which are expected to exceed normal levels by 7 to 11 degrees, reaching between 42 and 48 degrees Celsius on August 25 and 26, 2026. These conditions will persist until the end of the week due to the appearance of the Shieli event. The measures include protecting livestock from heat stress by providing shaded areas and continuous water supply, avoiding the movement of animals or outdoor work during peak hours, regulating irrigation water, monitoring fruit trees, and refraining from setting fires to prevent wildfires. Furthermore, fishermen are urged to adhere to weather bulletins to ensure maritime safety. Everyone is also encouraged to stay alert and exercise caution to prevent damages caused by the extreme heat, especially in the most vulnerable areas.
