NASA's prediction of a rising sea level along the Italian coasts by 2100, with an estimated increase of between 30 to 80 centimeters, has sparked concerns from Coldiretti about the potential impact on Italy's agricultural economy, particularly in the Po valley which accounts for 35% of the country's agricultural production. The intrusion of salt water is expected to render water resources and agricultural land unusable, adding to the challenges already faced by Italian agriculture due to climate change. In the past decade, these challenges have resulted in losses worth 14 billion euros due to damage to crops and structures from extreme events. Coldiretti is advocating for more effective structural interventions and risk management tools, including the construction of infrastructures like zero-impact storage basins, and is calling for the acceleration of the approval of a law on land consumption to protect the territory.

As sea levels rise, salt water penetrates the hinterland and burns crops in the fields, forcing the abandonment of agricultural activities already under pressure from climate change, including drought, fires and bad weather. This is what Coldiretti says in commenting on the alarm launched by NASA according to which the sea level along the Italian coasts seems destined to rise in the coming years with an estimated increase of between 30 and 80 centimeters by 2100. A scenario - underlines Coldiretti - more than worrying for the agricultural economy of a large part of Italy including the Po valley where 35% of national agricultural production is concentrated, including tomato sauce, fruit, vegetables and wheat, as well as farms from milk and cheese production. The rising of the saline wedge, that is the infiltration of salt water along the rivers, renders the water resources and the agricultural land itself unusable. A change already underway that - continues Coldiretti - aggravates ...
