Destructive frost hits SE Europe, one of the coldest April mornings in a decade
There were numerous reports of destructive frost across the countries, with many vineyards and fruit plantations almost completely damaged.

In Italy, up to 50 percent of Gala and Golden apples were destroyed. Alessandro Morini, a producer with roughly 40 ha (99 acres) in the Verona Province, said that as quantities and quality dropped, the costs went higher.

"I am practically on my own dealing with 40 hectares. It is not easy and I will not be able to keep up this rhythm for long. Something needs to be done when it comes to labor or we will all deal with serious problems," he stated.
