# Up to a Third Less Crop: Worrying Data Arrive from Europe

> Extreme weather has reduced crop prospects across parts of Europe, with prolonged summer drought and early-autumn dryness leaving yields in some areas 20–35% below the five-year average. Drought delayed autumn planting and worsened establishment in central and southern Europe, while excessive rain and saturated soils disrupted fieldwork in the north; October rainfall improved prospects in some areas but conditions remain uneven.
