Forest fires have been going on for days in Argentina’s Corrientes region. The flames, reaching the town of Mercedes, 200 kilometers away from the capital Buenos Aires, also spread to the Agricultural Experiment Station (INTA), turning the station and 50 years of research into ashes. INTA member Violeta Hauck said in a statement that with the fire that burned more than 500,000 hectares of land, “95 percent of the fields were burned. All the agricultural experiments at the station were also destroyed,” he said. The animals at the station were also evacuated.
