Europe’s extreme summer heat and drought are taking a heavy toll on agriculture, with cereal production across the European Union projected to fall 9% in 2026. France, Germany, Poland, Spain and Hungary are among the countries facing major production losses, while France’s maize harvest is forecast to plunge 35%, potentially its lowest since 1980. A June heatwave alone is estimated to have caused €2 billion to €2.3 billion in cereal-production losses.
