According to the European Drought Observatory, more than a third of the continent is currently under a drought warning, with 10% experiencing severe drought.
So the farmers reduce the water table so the country isn’t muddy?
No, it’s so the are they’re farming on isn’t too muddy for the heavy machinery.
They’re not talking about the areas peope are normally driving on.
But the water table being lower than the rainfall means there’s a drought and things are getting too dry. That’s not good for anybody. It harms the very ecosystem they’re trying to farm in.
The fields themselves are too soft/muddy for heavy machinery (and cows!).
