As devastating heat waves sweep swaths of the globe, farmers in Canada are facing a crippling phenomenon: Crops are baking in fields.

Cherries have roasted on trees. Fields of canola and wheat have withered brown. And as feed and safe water for animals grow scarce, ranchers may have no choice but to sell off their livestock.

@lovendures  I wept for, and still pray for, all being affected by the heatwave. Especially  the migrant farm workers.  https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2021/jul/16/farmworkers-labor-deadly-heat-few-protections
