Agricultural and gardening sectors in Poland are addressing seasonal challenges. Raspberry producers are experiencing reduced yields, estimated at 4-5 tons per hectare, due to weather extremes such as droughts and frosts, despite high market prices for extra class fruit. 

Kiwifruit plantations are also managing the impacts of spring frosts through irrigation and summer pruning. For domestic gardeners, recommendations include specific fertilization strategies—such as using potassium and phosphorus for roses while avoiding nitrogen for raspberries in September—to prepare plants for winter conditions.
