With the climate completely altered and a cyclone off the South Atlantic coast, we experienced an early spring rain between yesterday and today. The consequences will become apparent in the coming days: trees emerging from dormancy and sprouting leaves and blossoms, only for the weather to turn cold and dry again, causing them to squander their reproductive effort. This climatic stress has been producing seeds that fail to germinate or, if they do sprout, yield weak, fragile shoots.
