According to the Guardian, thieves stole a French winegrower’s entire harvest – 30 tonnes of grapes over 2 hectares.  A few thoughts:
- How do winegrowers survive if their entire harvest, a whole year’s work, is only worth £13,000?
- How much do grape-harvesting machines cost? Presumably this bloke has one for his own harvest and it sits in a barn for 364 days a year, if his entire crop can be picked in just a few hours.
- “The harvest was not insured against theft.” Can you insure a whole 2 hectares of crops against theft? (I bet you can now anyway)
