The heavy rains of the last few days as well as the melting of the snow due to the warming of temperatures are at the origin of many floods on the French territory. How did farmers cope with its exceptional floods?
Rclosed and / or damaged doors, submerged houses, power cuts … there are many consequences of a flood. For the peasants, victims of this overflow of water, other repercussions are to be feared (loss of crops, risk of drowning cattle…). Farmers are reacting on social networks to this natural phenomenon.

When you open your eyes and realize that the Doubs has not risen as much as expected and that in addition it is stabilized. The Saône allowed it to escape. Finally, that does not prevent that the lands are all flooded ?? pic.twitter.com/5xdsoVAUM6

While other operators are trying to find solutions to limit the damage.
The palliative solution and much less effective is the creation of channels to at least prevent the water from remaining on the surface. #FrAgTw pic.twitter.com/PkBmOg0ih5

Water storage
Some people wonder about the fact that nothing is set up in the infrastructures to store water superfluous in order to be able irrigate in summer in period of drought. For this @FPetorin “calls for a real policy of water storage ».
Yes, it is becoming urgent to store this water!
For that, a real storage policy is needed!@J_Denormandie @barbarapompili @Agri_Gouv#FrAgTw– François PÉTORIN (@FPetorin) January 30, 2021
The one I use is even already full …

All this #water that overflows will not be used to fill the tablecloths, they are already full …
Will it be useful for the #biodiversite ? Not sure…
Unless we keep it #storage for when will it stop raining ??? !
Or we let it join the ocean …@Agri_Gouv @Ecologie_Gouv pic.twitter.com/KkPIKmhisf– Guillaume Chamouleau (@guill_cham) January 30, 2021
?? Millions of m3 that go to the ocean.
It is common sense to store in winter to irrigate in summer. @Agri_Gouv@Ecologie_Gouv@Adour_Garonne @NvelleAquitaine @agpm_more @ChambagriFrance @EELV #Food Sovereignty #climate change # biodiversity #water pic.twitter.com/kQjyt86ECm— Christian Daniau (@DaniauChristian) February 1, 2021
