Agrarmeteorologisches Institute (MARS) European Commission estimates EU cereal yields
In the monthly report, the agrometeorological Institute MARS arrives at assessing the seed level in the countries of the EU concludes that high earnings expectations when the cereals are likely after evaluating the previous climate data.
As a benchmark, the average of the years 2010 to 2014 will be determined.
Are substantially responsible for the high income favorable spring and so far sufficient precipitation. The Scandinavian countries of northern parts of the UK and the Alpine region have benefited. It was too dry in eastern parts of Spain and on the Adriatic coast. The western regions on the Mediterranean coast of North Africa have also above-average rainfall. The high domestic production will help that the import demand for grain in the year 2015/16 lower fails.
Results are above average for the wheat from Spain via France, to expect Germany to Poland. Britain, Denmark and Sweden are also among this category of high yield expectations. Only middle income are expected in South East Europe with the exception of Bulgaria and Italy as well as in the Baltic States and Finland.
The yield forecasts for barley turn out less well. Britain, Denmark, Germany, Italy and Spain to reach only middle income. The Outlook for barley in Hungary and Romania are below average.
The Institute but points out that for the upcoming yield decisive period of grain training enough rain must fall, so that the rising water the plants needs. Therefore, the projections are subject to.
