		</div><p>Drought-stricken Spain said last month was the hottest and driest April since records began in 1961.</p>
<p>The State Meteorological Agency (AEMET) said on Monday that the average daily temperature in April had been 14.9C, 3C above the average.</p>
<p>AEMET said average maximum temperatures during the month were up by 4.7C.</p>
<p>Rainfall was a fifth of what would normally be expected in the month, making it the driest April on record in Spain.</p>
<p>Last year was Spain’s hottest since record-keeping started in 1961, and also the country’s sixth driest.</p>
<p>Three years of scant rainfall and high temperatures put the country officially into long-term drought earlier this year.</p>
<p>A flash study by a group of international scientists last week found that record-breaking April temperatures in Spain, Portugal and northern Africa were made 100 times more likely by human-caused climate change and would have been almost impossible in the past.</p>
<p>The government has requested emergency funds from the European Union to support farmers and ranchers whose crops are being affected by the situation.</p>
