Everything to save the corn

27 July 2018 - Wouter Baan

The maize is in poor condition in many places, because drought has paralyzed the development of the crop. Farmers come up with all kinds of things to provide the plots with water. An overview of what's going on on Twitter.

All ends are tied together to save the crop.

Irrigation with a converted sod injector. 

Work continues day and night. 

In France, too, a path is being cleared through the maize, in order to be able to irrigate.

Here in Germany the crop is not that bad. 

You can also look at it this way: at least the drought will keep you off the street. 

Better a good neighbor...

The rain that falls in a single place is often no more than a drop in the ocean.
