## Resource

UK farmers are battling record-breaking heatwaves that hit squarely during critical sheep shearing season, forcing them to provide shade and water while adjusting work hours to avoid peak temperatures. With unpredictable weather patterns and the lingering threat of drought, farmers face a tougher balancing act than ever before—managing extreme heat, health risks like skin cancer, and the physical toll of outdoor labor. As nature’s extremes intensify, the industry must adapt, turning resilience into a new standard for surviving and thriving in an increasingly volatile climate.
