Next time you see figs at the grocery store, brace yourself for sticker shock! In Iraq, drought is making it nearly impossible for farmers to grow figs, slashing harvests and sending prices up. Less water means smaller crops, more pests, and even a change in the fruit’s flavor. Farmers are switching to other jobs or using new watering tricks, but for now, expect figs to be a rare (and expensive) treat. Climate change is hitting our snacks, one fruit at a time. #Business #Industry #FoodPrices
