One Fifth Is Not Enough
Wednesday 7th October, 2026
Germany’s fruit growers used a nationwide harvest thanksgiving campaign, “One Fifth Is Not Enough”, to warn that locally grown fruit could become harder to find. The hook was a stark public appeal linking rising labour costs, worker shortages and weather risks to the possible loss of orchards—and calling for better support for growers.
Why it worked: It turned a familiar holiday moment into a scarcity warning with a crisp stat-driven slogan, offering reporters policy demands and human stakes.
The lesson: Consider hijacking a calendar moment to quantify an impending shortage, then pair it with concrete fixes and local human voices.
