Austria - Massive hail damage to agriculture

The hail storm predicted my meteorologists has caused large-scale, and in parts severe, damage to agriculture in Austria, especially in the federal provinces of Burgenland, Steiermark and Lower Austria. The arable fields, wine, vegetables and pastureland are especially affected. The extent of the damage: According to the first surveys by the experts of the Austrian hail insurance, total damage is around 2 million Euros across an affected agricultural area of over 13,000 hectares. Damage repairs have already begun, so that a swift compensation for the affected agriculturalists is guaranteed.
