Arable crops in Europe can really use rain

Tridge summary

The January 2022 issue of the Mars bulletin by the Joint Research Centre (JRC) and the Meteorological Institute forecasts a slightly above average yield for wheat and barley in Europe, despite a precipitation deficit and higher than average temperatures in many regions. The yields for common wheat in Europe are projected at 5.89 tons per hectare, with the Netherlands expecting 9.12 tons per hectare, and the yield for sugar beets is anticipated to surpass the multi-year average by more than 5%. However, some areas, especially potatoes, could benefit from more moisture for a good initial development.

For wheat and barley, JRC assumes yields slightly above the multi-year average based on weather forecasts. The start of the growing season also appears to be favorable enough for a reasonable production for potatoes and sugar beets. The Meteorological Institute describes the development of arable crops in Europe this week in the monthly Mars bulletin. The growing conditions in Europe are mainly dry. There is a precipitation deficit in large parts of western, central and southeastern Europe. Furthermore, France, parts of Switzerland and northern Spain in particular have to deal with higher than average cumulative temperatures. According to JRC, the yield potential of arable crops is generally good, but some precipitation is needed now. Wheat 1 ton in the plus For common wheat, JRC has set the yield forecast in Europe at 5.89 tons per hectare. That is 1.4 percent higher than the five-year average. For the Netherlands, the institute is currently calculating a yield of 9.12 tons per ...
