The adverse weather conditions, including severe heat and lack of rain, have significantly impacted this season's litchi yield
Litchi farmers across Bangladesh are registering poor yields this year due to adverse weather, meaning that consumers will have to pay more for the fruit in face of short supply.
Litchi farmers are concerned about potentially lower yields this year due to poor weather conditions, which hampered the flowering and budding stages of the fruit.
At least 31 children have died in northern India in the last 10 days from a deadly brain disease believed linked to a toxic substance found in litchi fruit, health officials say.
