Agriculture Ministry advises cold protection
The Ministry of Agriculture has called on farmers affected by the frost in western regions to take preventive measures to minimize the damage caused by the cold on olive trees, fruit trees, and vegetables. The statement explained that the frost has led to fruit damage, leaf drop, and branch breakage, with visible wounds on the branches and trunks, which could negatively impact growth and productivity. Therefore, the ministry recommends immediate treatment of vegetable fields with approved fungicides, trimming damaged branches, and gradually applying copper-based pesticides, while avoiding work during high-temperature periods. It is also essential to collect fallen fruits to prevent pest proliferation. Additionally, farmers are urged to contact the relevant authorities for further technical guidance.
