12 March 2021, Lower Saxony, Meinersen: Sick pine trees with dried out crowns stand in a pine forest of the Lower Saxony State Forests in the district of Gifhorn. With the drought comes the fungus: With the pine, the next tree species is now affected by forest dieback. The fungus Diplodia attacks the pines and causes massive damage.
