DELTA (SOYBEANS/COTTON): A system in the Gulf produced showers for southern areas the last few days, which may ease drought a little. More rain is needed farther north to keep the Mississippi River from falling back toward the record lows seen in October, which may occur this weekend and early next week with a system moving through.
BRAZIL (CORN/SOYBEANS): Heavy rain continues over southern areas while central areas have been very dry with temperatures near or above 100 F. The same pattern continues the next few days, which is unfavorable for most areas.
Dryness and heat in the Central will continue to overly stress developing soybeans and cause a need for replanting while wetness across the south will cause flooding and associated issues for developing corn and soybeans. The pattern will start to change this weekend as a system in the south shifts into central states. This will cause more typical wet season showers in central Brazil, though they may not be long-lasting. Heavy rain is still forecast to occur at times in the south.
ARGENTINA (CORN/SOYBEANS/WINTER WHEAT): Scattered showers will move through the country over the next couple of weeks, bringing decent rainfall to much of the country’s growing areas. The country is still recovering from drought and northwestern growing areas still have larger deficits, but most of the country has seen a positive turnaround in growing conditions in recent weeks.
EUROPE (WINTER WHEAT): The constant bombardment of an incredibly active pattern across the continent continues this week. The pattern may change a bit next week with a focus farther north and in the Mediterranean, which would include cooler temperatures as well. If so, that would put some northern areas into dormancy. Most areas are in good shape for soil moisture, with some areas of excess. Smaller areas of limited soil moisture are found in Spain and the far southeast, but that is not a large area of the continent.
BLACK SEA (WINTER WHEAT): Areas of showers continue to move through the region at times. Many areas have seen good precipitation over the last few weeks, which has improved conditions for winter wheat establishment. Warm temperatures have allowed much of the region to continue developing roots and extended the season. Some cooler temperatures are forecast this weekend, but crops are likely to stay active for a while yet.
CHINA (CORN/SOYBEANS/WINTER WHEAT/CANOLA): It was cold for central and northeastern areas this weekend, making it difficult to finish corn and soybean harvest or other fieldwork and pushing some of the winter wheat and canola crops toward or into dormancy, especially across the north. Temperatures are milder this week with some showers that may keep fieldwork slow, but the warmth is likely to be brief with cooler temperatures again next week. Most of the wheat and canola crops are in good shape heading into winter.
AUSTRALIA (WINTER WHEAT/CANOLA/COTTON/SORGHUM): Showers will continue sporadically the next few days, with most areas seeing little or none. Wheat and canola harvest should find mostly good conditions. Showers may increase across the East this weekend into next week, which would be helpful for cotton and sorghum planting and early development, but dry soils are still a large concern for these crops.
