Tridge summary

A report by Rosgan's Livestock Market shows that 48% of Argentina's livestock, or 26 million heads, are at risk due to droughts caused by climate change. Experts warn that the impacts of this drought are difficult to calculate as the climate phase is not yet over. If normal rainfall predictions for February and March are not met, the situation will worsen, potentially leading to significant losses. Measures to minimize animal mortality, especially among newborn cows, include anticipating births and sending undernourished livestock to slaughter. The Rosgan report also highlights the potential impact on meat production. In response, the Santa Fe government announced a $500 million credit line for farmers affected by the drought.

Especialistas vaticinan un duro panorama por la sequýa en la regiýn sur de Santa Fe "De concretarse estos pronýsticos, los efectos que hoy ya se estýn ...
