Stock Photo - 28 July 2021, Hessen, Wiesbaden: Farmer Ralf Schaab from the Erbenheim farm on the outskirts of Wiesbaden stands in front of his farm shop with a crate of freshly harvested tomatoes. Commenting on this year's harvest, he said ""This season is a stark contrast to the three dry years before. The wet, wet year with lots of regular rain has generally made the vegetation grow like a tropical jungle."" Rain has been plentiful, but cold weather in the spring and severe weather in the summer have dampened the initially high expectations of Hessian grain growers.
