Austrian and Slovakian farmers scramble to protect crops from frosty nights
As some of their plants and trees sprouted far too early, Austrian farmers are now scrambling to protect their harvest. The recent cold weather is freezing the trees' sensitive buds and farmers are resorting to creative measures to protect them. Some are using heaters to force heat directly onto the plants. The resulting warm air can also be distributed throughout the garden.
