Turkey's hazelnut harvest has been devastated by climate change. In Ordu, farmers like Zekayi Sagra report losing over half their crop due to a severe April frost.

Rising global temperatures cause trees to flower earlier, making them vulnerable to late frosts. Experts warn of a 40% drop in yield, driving up global hazelnut prices by 30%.

Pests and low state-regulated prices have exacerbated the crisis, forcing some farmers to abandon their land. The phenomenon is part of a growing trend known as "climateflation."
