World in 10 Overview

01

Canada - Is durum wheat vigor satisfactory at this stage?

Yes

 Vegetation indices in the core durum wheat production area are mostly above average ①, with NDVI curves indicating satisfactory vegetative growth up to this point ②. 

02

USA - Is the improvement in moisture conditions across the spring wheat area expected to continue in the coming days?

No

 Rainfall in the coming days is expected to remain below average according to GFS ①, while cumulative precipitation has clearly improved in recent days but still remains below levels observed in recent years (except for 2021) ②. 

03

USA - Is the wet pattern continuing across the corn area?

Yes

 Rainfall over the past few days has been above average across the core production areas of Iowa and Illinois ①. In the coming days, wet conditions are expected to persist across the western and southern Corn Belt ②. 

04

Brazil - Is the moisture situation satisfactory in the southern part of the country?

Yes

 Soil moisture levels, which are near or above average in Paraná and Rio Grande do Sul ①, are expected to remain elevated in the coming days ②. This is favorable for both corn and wheat in the region. 

05

Argentina - Do conditions remain favorable for corn harvest progress and wheat sowing operations?

Yes

 Rainfall over the past few days has been below average across a significant part of Argentina ①, creating favorable conditions for field operations. In the coming days, the dry pattern is expected to expand across the entire country ②. 

06

Australia - Is the moisture situation favorable across the country?

Yes

 Soil moisture levels have been above average in recent days ①. These favorable conditions are expected to continue in the coming days ②, supporting the vegetative growth of wheat, barley, and rapeseed crops. 

07

Europe - Will moisture stress continue across the continent?

No

 Soil moisture levels have been low across a large part of the continent in recent days ①. This issue is expected to persist and even intensify across Europe in the coming days ②. It is affecting the final stages of late wheat development and could have an even greater impact on the corn crop cycle. To be monitored. 

08

Europe - Is the upcoming heatwave a cause for concern?

Yes

 The warm pattern that began in western Europe over the past few days ① is expected to persist, intensify, and expand across a large part of the continent in the coming days ②. This is a source of concern, as dry conditions are also expected to dominate across Europe in the near term. 

09

Russia - La vigueur des cultures est-elle élevée pour le blé de printemps ?

Yes

 Vegetation indices are well above average from western Volga to eastern Siberia ①, reflecting very dynamic spring wheat growth this season ②. 

10

India - Le début de saison du maïs et du soja tarde-t-il dans le centre du pays ?

Yes

 Vegetation indices in the central part of the country appear to be below average ①, suggesting a slow start to the corn and soybean growing season. This would be consistent with the delayed onset of the monsoon expected in the coming days ②.
