"You only need to meet and listen to people in the sector to know that agriculture is one of the hardest hit by the climate emergency. Extreme weather events, which are becoming increasingly frequent and intense, cause damage and uncertainty for production continuity, such as this summer's drought, but also unusual frosts at unusual times, the Asian bug and other external pathogens: a fragility that our agriculture has never experienced before. But agriculture also knows that it is one of the contributors to climate-changing emissions."
