Increased heat in the United States remains the main factor influencing the prices of corn and wheat

In addition to the drought in the central regions of Brazil, which worsened forecasts for corn production, a new factor in supporting prices was adverse weather conditions in the Northern Plains of the United States, which will reduce the spring wheat harvest. Therefore, despite the beginning of the harvest, exchange prices continue to rise.

In the central regions of Brazil, dry and hot weather Reigns. The lack of precipitation during the week amid unusually high temperatures will continue to lower production forecasts. In the southern states, moderate to heavy rains will occur, which will reduce the stress on crops.

In the United States, in the area of the Northern Plains this week, the temperature reached 35-35 ^OhC, and the next one will drop to 30-32 ^OhC, which will worsen the drought and worsen the condition of spring wheat crops against the background of lack of precipitation.

In the southern plains of the United States, recent rains have almost leveled arid phenomena. Next week, periodic precipitation and low temperatures will contribute to the development of soybean, corn and wheat crops.

In the Midwest of the United States, the weather is favorable for soybean and corn crops. Heavy rains next week will improve the condition of crops and prospects for the corn harvest.

In the prairies of Canada, after the frosts last week, you will have to re-sow some of the spring crops. Heavy recent precipitation has replenished moisture reserves, but most areas need additional rain to get rid of arid phenomena. Sowing of canola and spring wheat is coming to an end, and the weather contributes to the development of crops. Temperatures are expected to be within normal limits and heavy precipitation next week.

In the Black Sea region of Ukraine and Romania, as well as in the south-west of Russia, Rain and heavy rains will take place next week, which will replenish soil moisture reserves and improve the condition of spring crops.

According to estimates of the Hydrometeorological center of Russia, the yield of winter crops in 2021 will decrease by 0.27 t/ha compared to the previous year to 3.4-3.6 t/ha due to frost damage to plants in the central regions.
