The real tragedy occurred at one of the UK poultry farms. As a result of exposure to heat and stuffiness, more than a thousand individuals of poultry died here.
This is a farmer called Moy Park, which is located in the vicinity of Newton-on-Trent in Lincolnshire. It is known that at the time of the tragedy, the birds were in a shed specially designated for them.
According to preliminary data, the ventilation system was faulty in this room. And the high temperature of the summer air played a cruel joke with the birds - the unfortunate hens simply suffocated in an unventilated shed, which stands in the sun.
That the birds died as a result of overheating, confirmed in an independent laboratory "Compassion in World Farming".
It should be noted that on the day the chickens died, the weather in Lincolnshire was indeed unusually hot. Abnormal stuffiness at a temperature of thirty-eight and a half degrees Celsius overpowered farmers and their livestock throughout the county.
It is noteworthy that today most of the European countries are languishing from the heat, experiencing a tremendous decline in agriculture due to the impact of high temperatures on productivity and productivity.
