Low temperatures recorded in recent days in Caaguazú are already causing significant losses for small vegetable farmers, especially those growing cucumbers in open fields. In Coronel Oviedo, farmers report near-total losses in exposed crops, while crops protected by greenhouses remain intact. The Directorate of Agrarian Extension (DEAg) says it is monitoring the situation and will send technicians to assess the damage.
