Brazil Safrinha Corn Planting Almost Finished

Kansas City, March 25 (World Weather Inc.) –Safrinha corn in Mato Grosso received enough rain in recent weeks to support a good environment for emergence and early-season development. Recent rainfall in Safrinha corn and cotton areas also improve development prospects, though much more rain is needed in some center south crop areas to ensure normal crop development after the monsoon season ends. Many areas in center-west and center-south Brazil were drier than usual in recent weeks and have deficient moisture. Rain will be scattered across the main production areas in Brazil during the coming week, which should start to improve the moisture profile. Short-term conditions will remain relatively good for Safrinha corn and cotton; although timely rain will still be needed in April, May and early June to ensure the best yields especially in Parana and southern Mato Grosso do Sul where it has been driest. Harvesting of soybeans, first-season corn, and other crops should advance well around periods of rain.

Weekly Citrus Weather for Tuesday, March 25, 2025

Kansas City, March 25 (World Weather Inc.) – Florida’s citrus areas were either dry or received limited rain during the past week. Irrigation continued to be the primary source for moisture as drought or abnormally dry conditions prevailed. The main citrus areas will see a good mix of rain and sunshine during the coming week that will ease the need for irrigation at times. Brazil’s citrus areas saw a mix of rain and sunshine during the past week. Rain will often be scattered across the region during the coming week and citrus conditions will remain favorable. East-central and northeastern Mexico will also have opportunities for rain during the next several days that will be beneficial for flowering and blooming trees.

Queensland, Australia Expecting Heavy Rain; Flooding Likely

Kansas City, March 24 (World Weather Inc.) – With harvesting either underway or beginning in the coming weeks, the need for drier weather is increasing for eastern Australia. Yield potentials are expected to be slightly above the previous ten-year average, despite periods of dryness over the growing season. The main concern going forward will be waves of heavy rain for Queensland and northern New South Wales this week. Portions of central Queensland could receive more than 10.00 inches of rain by this time next week. The rain may delay the harvest and could lower crop quality in the wettest locations. Open boll cotton could experience some of the most significant impacts with boll rot, quality declines, and even production losses possible. Rainfall will not be as severe in New South Wales and crop impacts should be minimal.
