In early summer, wild forecasts appeared in the Germany media with dire warnings of a blistering hot summer, accompanied by severe drought! Harvests risked being dreadful.

But now that summer has ended, Germany’s DWD national weather service reports this year’s harvest “is significantly better than last year.”
“In many places, the fruit trees across the country are laden with fruit. In some cases, they are so heavily laden that individual branches are breaking under the enormous weight,” the DWD reports.
In terms of figures, the yield per hectare of grain (excluding corn) increased by 7.3 percent compared to the average from 2019 to 2024. The outlook for fruit and wine growing is similarly promising: the apple harvest is expected to increase by around 15.7 percent compared to the previous year and by 3.9 percent compared to the multi-year average.
The cherry harvest was one of the best in many years. Farmers also expect a good to above-average harvest and good quality for the 2025 vintage. We can only hope that the coming period will not be completely ruined by rain and that the wine can be harvested on time.
