According to farmers, the rice yield is more than 30 percent lower in 2023 because of the high temperatures, and that due to the lack of rain, the air humidity is much lower. Rice is not the only agricultural crop that will bring less income in 2023. Information from grape producers indicates that climate change affecting North Macedonia is reducing grape production by more than 30 percent. EPA/GEORGI LICOVSKI
