A woman walks past empty refrigerated supermarket shelves which normally display 'butter' on October 25, 2017 in Saint-Sebastien-sur-Loire, western France. A newfound taste for full-fat spreads in the West, coupled with rising demand for French pastries in Asia, have created butter shortages in the home of the croissant, France.

Workers load manure onto a tractor as they work in the vines of the Chateau La Brande, which produces Castillon Cotes de Bordeaux designation wine, on October 23, 2017, in Belves-de-Castillon, southwestern France. Experts from the 28 member states of the European Union are due to vote on October 25, 2017, on the European Commission recommendation to renew the license for the herbicide glyphosate for ten years in mid-December. Research from the World Health Organization concluded the weedkiller, produced by chemicals giant Monsanto and others, may cause cancer, and opponents too the chemical are calling for an outright ban.

Farmer Jesus Caravaca, age 64, empties a tank of goat milk into a bucket before being made into cheese on October 25, 2017 in Gavas, Spain. Catalonia is one of 17 autonomous communities within Spain which were created as part of the 1978 Spanish constitution, following the death of former Head of State Francisco Franco. The farthest Northeastern region of Spain has its own language and a rich history dating back to the middle ages. Under Franco the use of the Catalan language was restricted and Catalan nationalism was repressed. On October 1, 2017 a Catalan independence referendum, declared illegal by the Spanish government, was held. Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy has said the government will now strip Catalonia of its autonomy after President Carles Puigdemont signed an independence declaration.

On 22 October 2017, in The Netherlands, during the season the landscape is flooded with green, ochre, golden and reddish colours. Also because the summer this year was wet and this Autumn is being cold, there are more mushrooms than ever before. This has created a mushroom boom and people, especially from countries where mushroom picking is an annual ritual such as Poland, are taking the opportunity to supplement their diet. Its the perfect season to take pictures of nature and enjoy the marvelous sights. The Netherlands has many wooded areas with hiking trails that are easy to follow.

In this photograph taken on October 27, 2017 an Afghan woman collects saffron flowers after picking them in a field on the outskirt of Herat. For years, Afghanistan has tried to give farmers alternatives such as fruit crops and saffron to wean them away from poppy farming -- the lifeblood of the Taliban insurgency. International donors have splurged billions of dollars on counter-narcotics efforts in Afghanistan over the past decade, including efforts to encourage farmers to switch to other cash crops such as saffron. But those efforts have shown little results. Photo credit: AFP / HOSHANG HASHIMI / Getty Images.
