Frost can severely damage crops, particularly those in flowering and pod-filling stages, as well as vegetables with soft leaves and tropical fruit plants. Young plants and nurseries are especially vulnerable due to their proximity to the ground, where cold air settles. Signs of frost damage include water-soaked or glassy leaves that turn brown or black, dried flowers and pods, and blackened foliage in crops like potato and tomato. Farmers in frost-prone areas must act promptly to mitigate risks, as frost can lead to significant yield losses and financial strain.
