Joan Ferrer, 32, a farmer, removes an apple snail (Caracol de Manzana) before harvesting rice in his fields in the Ebro Delta, Deltebre, Spain, October 5, 2021. With rising seas threatening to engulf low-lying shores, the government aims to buy 832 hectares of private land in the Ebro Delta in what would be Europe's largest climate-related land buyouts to date. It has prompted strong opposition from farmers in the Ebro Delta - where 62,000 people live and lucrative rice fields account for 65 percent of the area.
