Indian Monsoon Will Further Improve Planting Prospects

Kansas City, June 25 (World Weather Inc.) – Monsoonal rainfall expanded across a large portion of India during the past week. The precipitation helped reduce excessive heat that severely impacted western, central, and northern India for an extended period of time in recent weeks. Planting prospects slowly improved as rain fell, though much more rain is needed to completely fix moisture deficits in the driest locations. Planting is likely underway in a large part of the country as monsoonal rain continues to expand farther north. Eastern and central India will receive some of the most frequent and significant monsoonal rain during the coming week that will gradually bolster soil moisture. Flooding will again be a concern in the wettest locations of India’s Eastern States and portions of Bangladesh. Western fringes of Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu, and neighboring areas in southern Andhra Pradesh and eastern Karnataka will otherwise trend mostly dry or not receive enough rain to counter evaporation. Crop establishment and early-season development conditions will either improve or remain favorable outside the driest areas in western Rajasthan.

Weekly Citrus Weather for Tuesday, July 25, 2024

Kansas City, June 25 (World Weather Inc.) – The moisture profile improved significantly across Florida after a few weeks of significant rainfall. Rain and irrigation continued to support a good environment for citrus despite drier weather in May and earlier this month. Frequent rainfall will evolve during the coming week and help maintain a good outlook fruit development. In Mexico, Tropical Storm Alberta brought torrential rain to portions of northeastern and east-central Mexico last week. Severe flooding was noted in portions of Tamaulipas, Nuevo Leon, and Veracruz. Impacts om citrus trees and fruit development should be far more favorable than detrimental. None of the wind associated with the storm should have been great enough for a serious impact on crops. Brazil’s citrus areas were seasonally dry during the past week and will not receive much rain in the coming week.
