Yield outlook slightly reduced
The yield outlook for EU winter crops was slightly reduced for the third consecutive month. At EU level, the yield forecasts for soft wheat, durum wheat and winter barley are now just below the 5-year average. The forecasts for rapeseed, maize and sunflowers were also reduced but remain at, or just above, the 5-year average. Forecasts for sugar beet, potatoes, and soybeans (still mostly based on historical trends), as well as spring barley, remain essentially unchanged. The main reason for the reduced yield outlook is the continued drier-than-usual conditions in large parts of Europe, with the strongest impacts in regions where these are combined with hot temperatures.
This issue of the Bulletin features a special section on rice in Europe. Rice sowing was accomplished without major constraints, but on an area about 7% smaller than last year, mainly due to water availability concerns.
