"The sky is resentful. There is nothing to save a single cabbage, so it only burns inside." Mun Tae-bok (67), who has been farming cabbage for 20 years in Goesan, Chungcheongbuk-do, sighed as he looked at the dangling cabbage in the field on the 26th. I planted cabbage in a wide field of 9,000 square meters in March last year, because it is not possible to enjoy the joy of the harvest, and has to be plowed all over. His cabbage was hit directly by the jagged abnormal climate this year. In late March, when the cabbage seedlings took root, the temperature dropped to around 0 degrees, and suffered cold damage. As a result, the growth of cabbage stops, and the inside rots, making it impossible to harvest. Spring cabbage grows well at 18-20 degrees Celsius. However, the average daytime temperature in this area reached 24.7 degrees this month, and the last 23-24 days were hot with over 30 degrees. In addition, the wart disease, in which the cabbage root swells abnormally, is spreading, tormenting Mr. Moon.
