(Natural News) Parts of Canada are currently experiencing the hottest temperatures ever on record, resulting in severe drought conditions that threaten to destroy local agriculture.
The situation is so dire in Manitoba that government officials recently declared a state of agricultural emergency. The Rural Municipality of St. Laurent, located in the Interlake region, is another that declared an agricultural state of disaster after temperatures reached the upper 90s.
Not only is it exceptionally hot in Canada but rainfall has been minimal. St. Laurent has received less than 40 percent of its normal amount so far this year, which is killing crops, as well as drying out the wells and dugouts used to water them.
