Climatologist Hristo Popov has highlighted the impact of heat waves on cereal cultivation, with wheat potentially burning and corn grains cracking due to high temperatures and prolonged drought.

This shift is evident in the cultivation of kiwi in Southwestern Bulgaria and the growth of tropical fruits and heat-loving vine varieties in Western Europe. In Russia and Canada, agricultural land is moving northward. Rising temperatures are also extending the growing season in regions like South China, allowing for two crops in a year.

Due to the heat waves, we will certainly start experiencing difficulties with the cultivation of some types of cereals, said climatologist Hristo Popov on BloombergTV. The situation with sunflowers is not pink everywhere According to him, one effect is related to the so-called burning of wheat, which reduces the quality of the grain. In the case of corn, the grains themselves crack, and the combination of high temperature and prolonged drought can completely compromise the harvest. On the other hand, when we have a fever, heat waves and cold fronts lead to hail, which destroys everything behind us. As happened in Plovdiv recently. Climatologist: At this stage there are no crops that are in danger of extinction, rather their habitats are moving. With climate change, the conditions for their cultivation are shifting to more northern areas. For example, Hristo Popov gives Southwestern Bulgaria, where more and more often kiwi is grown, which until recently was atypical for our ...
