This article aims to create awareness of the effect of climate change on the Maltese farming sector and on local agricultural products. Farmers provide an insight on how too little or too much rainfall affects their crops. The article describes briefly what climate change is and mentions some of the measures that local farmers carry out to protect and sustain their crops. The article ends on a positive note suggesting small actions that the general public can carry out to contribute to combatting climate change and indirectly support the Maltese farming sector.
