MNFU highlights concerns
While the majority of the Island is enjoying soaking in the sunshine, the farming community is beginning to be concerned about the effect the dry spell is having on their growing crops.
In the UK, it's reported that rainfall has been thirty per cent of that normally expected over the last month.
On the Island, there are areas that are affected more than others.
