Heatwave guidelines for farmers
The Ministry of Agriculture announced the necessity for farmers and livestock breeders to adhere to preventive guidelines during the intense heatwave to protect crops and livestock. It called for increased ventilation inside greenhouses, organizing irrigation in the morning and evening, and employing modern watering techniques to reduce water consumption. It also urged avoiding pesticide spraying at midday, postponing vaccination and fertilization activities, providing clean water and shaded areas for animals and bees, and refraining from grazing livestock during the hottest hours. These measures come as warnings of rising temperatures caused by a hot air mass coming from the Arabian Peninsula, and the weather is expected to be extremely hot in the coming days.
