The "frost event of the century" experienced across Turkey left fruit orchards empty during the harvest season. In a 10-decare orchard in the Baskil district of Elazığ, only one apple grew, and it turned out to be rotten.
The cold weather, described as the "frost event of the century," which occurred months ago across Turkey, left fruit orchards almost empty during the harvest season. In the Baskil district of Elazığ, the extent of the damage became strikingly apparent.
In the 10-decare orchard, where a large portion of fruit trees, including apricots, apples, and walnuts, have dried up, only one apple grew during the harvest time. And it turned out to be rotten. The farmer who owns the orchard expressed the magnitude of the damage by saying, "In this huge 10-decare land, only one apple grew, and it is rotten."
