Farmers face ruin? War and weather push costs up.

Farmers worldwide are struggling with rising costs for fuel, fertiliser and animal feed, driven by the conflict in Iran. These new pressures add to existing challenges in the agricultural sector. At the same time, extreme weather is hitting farms hard. The UK just recorded its hottest May day ever. Europe also saw record-breaking temperatures in late May. The UN has warned that El Niño—a weather pattern that raises global temperatures and worsens some rainfall—is likely to return soon. We want to hear from farmers: how are these challenges affecting you?
