Compared with last year’s poor performance, the yield and production outlook is distinctly more positive, with an expected production increase of 23% for wheat and 39% for barley.
The cereals harvest campaign is being concluded in September under mostly good conditions with variable regional results.
Canopy conditions as observed by satellite
Satellite observations of the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) vegetation indicator on arable land mainly show variable crop conditions across the country. Positive anomalies (in green) reflect above-average canopy density or early crop development while negative anomalies (in red) reflect below-average biomass accumulation or late crop development. In the above map positive anomalies (greenish colours on the map) prevail in Northwest Kazakhstan, where adequate soil moisture levels sustained above-average biomass accumulation, but negative anomalies (reddish colours) are observed in East Kazakhstan and in parts of North and South Kazakhstan, as a result of the irregular precipitation that reduced crop growth.
We need your help: JRC MARS Bulletins Survey
The JRC MARS Bulletins Survey aims to collect information to better understand how you use the JRC MARS Bulletin. This will help us to improve our service in the future. Completion of the survey should take less than 10 minutes of your time. All information collected will be anonymous – no personal information is requested.
The survey is available at 2022 JRC MARS Bulletin – Crop Monitoring in Europe Survey
