JRC MARS Bulletin - Global outlook - Crop monitoring European neighbourhood - Russia - June 2021
Fair yield outlook despite contrasting weather conditions
The bulletin on Russia reports that a difficult start to the season (due to dry and warm autumn conditions) was followed by cold spells during the winter. Abundant and frequent rainfall in combination with near seasonal temperatures during spring helped maintain a fair yield outlook for winter crops in most of European Russia, except for the Volga okrug, where a soil moisture deficit prevailed. Compared with the previous season, a significant share of the winter wheat that suffered from bad germination and frost kill was replaced by spring and summer crops. Spring crop sowings were delayed in European Russia due to overly wet soils, but progressed rapidly in Asian Russia thanks to generally dry and mild conditions.
