China Late Summer Weather Supporting Good Production

Kansas City, August 28 (World Weather Inc.) – Several areas in southeastern China and the central Yangtze River Basin received limited rainfall during the past week and temperatures were very warm in Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hubei, and neighboring locations. These areas still had enough soil moisture to support aggressive crop growth and development. Other areas in China received enough rain to support relatively good crop conditions as well. Alternating periods of rain and sunshine are slated for most locations during the coming week. Late-season development conditions will remain favorable for much of the country. The lack of abundant rainfall will also be beneficial for the earliest-planted crops that are maturing and getting ready for harvest.

Russia, Ukraine Harvest Conditions To Improve

Kansas City, August 28 (World Weather Inc.) – Several areas in northwestern Ukraine and Russia received enough rain during the past week to disrupt late-season winter crop harvesting and early-summer crop maturation and harvesting. No quality impacts were suspected, although several areas in northern and western Russia would benefit from drier weather in the near future. This includes the Russian New Lands. Unirrigated summer crops in southern Ukraine, the Volga River Basin, and USDA defined ‘Southern Region’ in Russia that have not started to mature would welcome a good shot of rain in the near future. A high-pressure ridge aloft will promote drier and warmer than normal conditions for a large section of Ukraine, western Russia, Belarus, and neighboring locations during the coming week while areas near and east of the Ural Mountains see a mix of rain and sunshine. Harvest and general fieldwork conditions will improve or remain favorable outside the wettest areas in Russia.
