spread cereals: The damage is enormous and widely spread cereals, greenhouse and vegetable farms, and vineyards as well, Chardon said, according to The Japan Times. In the neighboring village of Pont-de-L'Isere, Aurelien Esprit showed apricots littering the ground and battered apple trees at his orchards in a Facebook video. Pretty much my entire harvest is ruined, said Gregory Chardon, who grows apricots, peaches and cherries at his farm in La Roche-de-Glun in the Drome department, about an hour's drive south of Lyon. ; Even the netting strung over his fields was no match for the tempest of hail which suddenly struck on Saturday afternoon, strewing the ground with damaged fruit and broken branches. Unfortunately the season ended for us last night. Agriculture Minister Didier Guillaume said the state would declare a natural emergency to trigger insurance payments and other help to farmers facing huge losses. I don't think I'm going to make it this time, he said.
