Lot-et-Garonne weather

Dams in the southwestern French department of Lot-et-Garonne are already half empty due to recent weather conditions, causing concern among farmers, according to a report from France 3.

The department experienced half its average rainfall during a dry winter, while spring rains are still yet to arrive.

Water problems are expected to be a major talking point among producers at this week's international salon for sustainable agriculture, taking place in local commune Agen.
