Ping pong-sized hail damages apple crops in Akkar

Share:

For the first time in October , Ping pong ball-sized-hail fell in Akkar’s mountain region  of north Lebanon on Saturday, resulting in damages to the apple crops and prompting the local farmers to immediately appeal for government’s help.

“It is the first time we see hail in October”, farmers said, pleading with the Minister of Agriculture to send his experts for damage assessment in order to take appropriate steps.

      again it is a big shame to see someone pretending to be lebanese to be so ironic and so degrading to the thousands of highly qualified agricultural engineers that are active in Lebanon as well as the many thousands who have excelled abroad; you are really embarrassing to any real lebanese citizen in Lebanon or abroad; seen the lack of response to this horrible insult to Lebanon i can get a rough estimate of the number of real lebanese blogging here

        MiniAlawi … take a pleasant drive up to at least Zgharta olive orchards sometime, and ask the farmers if it was they, or the wonderful politicians and their ‘engineers’, who suggested plowing raw garbage dumped at road-side into the ground around the trees – which includes the plastic and tin cans and anything else small enough – to hide the fact that the country can’t figure out how to dispose of the mountains it creates, besides allowing it to collapse into, or leach into rivers that flow to, or be directly delivered into, the Mediterranean sea.
        I agree there is ‘activity’ in Lebanon (although little electrical activity) … but one cannot be proud of it unless one is subjectively blind. Try drinking from the tap.
         Excelling abroad is due to entirely different factors.
