World in 10 Overview

01

Canada - Is the moisture situation satisfactory across the wheat area?

Yes

 Rainfall over the past 30 days has been above average across most of the wheat area ①, with cumulative precipitation remaining satisfactory at this stage to meet crop water requirements ②. 

02

USA - Is crop vigor weak across part of the spring wheat area?

Yes

 Vegetation indices are below average in eastern North Dakota ①, with NDVI curves remaining fairly close to those observed during the very poor 2021 season ②. 

03

USA - Is the dry trend across part of the corn area a concern at this stage?

No

 Soil moisture across the Corn Belt is below average between Iowa and Minnesota ①. Vegetation indices indicate normal vegetative development at this stage ②, with crop water requirements remaining moderate in recent weeks. However, moisture conditions during July will need to be closely monitored. 

04

Brazil - Are crop conditions still satisfactory in Paraná?

Yes

 Vegetation indices remain high in Paraná ①, with NDVI curves indicating satisfactory corn vigor during the final stages of the crop cycle ②. 

05

Argentina - Will conditions in the coming days be favorable for corn harvest progress and wheat sowing operations?

Yes

 Rainfall over the past few days has been below average across the western and northern corn and wheat areas ①. In the coming days, a more widespread dry pattern is expected to develop ②, allowing field operations to progress rapidly. 

06

Australia - Are vegetation indices improving in northern New South Wales?

Yes

 Vegetation indices over the past 10 days in northern New South Wales have remained below average ①. However, NDVI curves are showing a very rapid increase, reflecting the onset of vigorous vegetative crop growth ②. 

07

Europe - Are conditions unfavorable for crops across the continent?

Yes

 A very hot weather pattern is underway and is expected to persist across Europe in the coming days, with France at its epicenter ①. In addition, this heat will be accompanied by particularly low soil moisture levels across most of the continent ②. 

08

Europe - Is crop vigor holding up against weather conditions across the entire western part of the continent?

No

 Vegetation indices deteriorated significantly in France between June 1 ① and June 21 ②. The hot and dry conditions expected in the coming days are likely to reinforce this negative trend. 

09

Russia - Does crop vigor remain very high for spring wheat?

Yes

 Vegetation indices are well above average across the spring wheat area, particularly in the Ural District ①, reflecting very satisfactory crop conditions as wheat enters the critical heading stage ②. 

10

China - Are there any major issues across the soybean and corn area in the northeastern part of the country?

No

 Vegetation indices remain satisfactory across northeastern China, particularly in Heilongjiang, the country's main soybean-producing region ①, with NDVI curves indicating satisfactory crop growth ②.
