A sharp and intense drop in air temperature leads Italian farming to tangible losses. The hostages of the situation are not only the farmers involved in the cultivation of plant crops, but also the owners of livestock farms.

According to Italian media, local peasants are using all available means to insulate cow stalls and heat their farms as much as possible.

“We pour hot water to the cows in the drinking bowls,” the farmers affected by the frost say. - And also we put on warm clothes for cows and calves. We sew from woolen covers special “coats”.

I must say that a warm suit for a cow is not such a cheap pleasure: one “coat” costs farmers an average of 50-55 euros.

Note that Italy is not the first time faced with an intense and sharp cooling. Frosts in 2017 caused damage to the country's agriculture in the amount of more than one and a half billion euros. A looming powerful cyclone is worsening the country's climate.
