Agricultural organizations in Italy are seeking economic interventions to mitigate damage caused by extreme weather. In early September, Coldiretti requested the convocation of the ‘Tavolo Verde’ in the Cuneo region to address severe drought and its impact on production and business income. Concurrently, beekeeping federations submitted a joint note to the Ministry of Agriculture, Food Sovereignty and Forestry (Masaf) requesting structural support through the Common Agricultural Policy to counter the effects of drought and late frosts.

By late September, focus shifted toward the hazelnut sector in the Piedmont Region. Coldiretti Cuneo requested an urgent meeting and the creation of an extraordinary fund to assist companies with the uprooting, replanting, and modernization of groves following heavy impacts from extreme weather conditions.
