Talking to my farmer landlord today, the orange crop has failed this year, this is due to Mays warm winds which burnt the flowers on the trees, he says Cyprus will be importing Oranges this year and the prices will go up. (Climate change)

Our trees are heavily laden after all the rain during the last winter.

Sounds like the farmers are 'playing the market'?
