  8. Britain could face food shortages as drought continues, farmers warn

    #Britain could face shortages of certain #foods after punishing #drought in parts of #England, the National Farmers’ Union #NFU has warned as a heatwave was forecast to continue into next week.

    The UK’s Health Security Agency #UKHSA has issued heat #health alerts for eight regions of England, with temperatures set to rise above 30C in parts of the country. UKHSA said rising temperatures may increase health risks, particularly for vulnerable groups.

    Farms across the country were affected by #floods over the winter, making planting extremely difficult, and now in many areas they do not have access to #water as irrigation is being restricted due to drought.
