Drought: French agriculture facing losses and emergency aid

Early November 2026, after a scorching summer and summer drought, effects are being felt in several sectors: bees in the Bruche valley have been disrupted, Breton livestock farmers lack fodder and sugar beet production in Alsace is declining. On November 8, the 30% drop in sugar beet production raises fears of a sugar shortage and price correction, while Christmas tree producers seek to be reassuring and 1.15 million euros from the agricultural emergency fund are distributed in the Doubs. In the following days, autumn grass growth reaches its lowest level in at least 40 years, a Breton official calls for farms to adapt, local wheat varieties are being replanted in Hauts-de-France and Oxfam notes the rise in food prices. In Corsica, 3.6 million euros are mobilized for farmers, while organic producers denounce their exclusion from the CASI plan; on November 11, Christmas tree producers testify to losses and a risk of price increases is mentioned.
