Coronavirus leads to food industry crisis in Europe

Across Europe, much of the food and agriculture industry has been badly affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.
Half of the fishermen in the Netherlands have stopped going out to sea. That's because the price of fresh fish has plummeted due to a lack of demand.

And many of the warehouses that store fresh food across Europe are now reaching capacity.
