In Europe, two thirds of the continent are officially recognized to be heavily effected by drought. The rivers have so low water levels that so-called hunger stones appear:

In Germany, farmers fear that next year a quarter less of agricultural foods may be produced. This is not only due to lacking water, but also lacking gas to produce fertilizers, and instructions from the EU Central Committee to exclude extensive farmland from active farming and not to use it for production. This year's production of all grains and crops together is slightly better than last year, but is significantly below the averages of the years before Corona.
