Brief agrometeorological review for the 3rd decade of May 2023 in Kazakhstan

Published 2023년 6월 8일

Tridge summary

As of the third decade of May, grain-sowing regions in northern Kazakhstan have been actively sowing spring crops and treating them with herbicides. Despite satisfactory growth and development of crops, precipitation levels have been below normal. However, a drop in air temperature to minus 3°C in the east and south-east did not significantly affect crop sprouting. Various development phases in spring wheat and barley, as well as rice and fruit crops, were reported across the country, with generally good conditions. Perennial grasses like alfalfa and clover are also growing well. Overall, the prevailing weather conditions have been favorable for grazing activities.

In the third decade of May, all grain-sowing regions of the northern half of the republic continued sowing spring grain crops, treating fields with herbicides against weeds, and the quality of field work was generally good. Conditions for the growth and development of grain crops were satisfactory, precipitation was below normal. A decrease in air temperature at night in the east and south-east of the country to minus 3°C was not so dangerous for the sprouting of spring crops. At the same time, the processes of germination and emergence of seedlings at low temperatures proceed very slowly. In the observed areas on spring wheat crops in the west (in West Kazakhstan and Aktobe regions), the phase “grain germination” - “tillering” is observed, the condition of plants is generally good, the height of wheat reaches 11-19 cm. In the north, on early crops, the phase “grain germination” - “sprouts” is noted, in some areas weeds are treated with herbicides. In the center of the country in ...
