Altas temperaturas provocan la muerte de al menos 50 ganados en El Salvador. EN6

The Salvadoran livestock sector is on high alert following a report from the National Agricultural Roundtable on the deaths of 50 head of cattle between March and April 2026, a figure exceeding those recorded in previous years. This problem, attributed to extreme temperatures that have reached 40°C in areas such as the eastern part of the country, has generated a crisis in animal health and a significant reduction in milk production due to heat stress and lack of feed. Authorities and industry associations indicate that climate change and the conditions of the dry season continue to severely affect resource availability, jeopardizing the sustainability of livestock farming.
