DRV corrected German rapeseed crop estimate in his 3 month estimate the German Raiffeisen Federation on a 1.8% higher German rapeseed crop in comparison comes to the previous year. Rd. 5,01 million tonnes to grow reduced earnings estimates on acreage increased by 3.6%.
If the results are however very differently in the individual areas.
In the largest cultivation region Mecklenburg-Vorpommern 914.550 t to be harvested. Despite increased acreage, a smaller harvest volume of 2.8% is expected due to the reduced income assumptions.
Lower Saxony and Brandenburg with 455,000 tons each assume also low Flächenerträgen and harvest results in the order of 1.3 and 3.6%, respectively.
Also Schleswig-Holstein expects bagasbas of unchanged acreage with 6% less rape as a result of lower earnings expectations.
However, you expect a 7.1% increase in profit in Saxony-Anhalt with a harvest volume of 661.815 t in 1. Due to a land extension line is. It expects even higher growth rates in Thuringia, Germany with 14.2%, which however % increase of the hectare comes together in this case by an 8.
In North Rhine-Westphalia a 10.8% it is estimated increasing canola harvest as a result of an acreage increase of almost 8% and a 3% higher yield expectations.
In Baden - Württemberg, Bavaria and Rhineland-Palatinate , harvests should differ only slightly from the previous year.
The year's rape harvest is under the impression of the prohibited use of Neonicotinoids with the effect that increased damage from insect feeding could have led to loss of earnings. It is however still too early for a final assessment. Only the DRUSCH results will provide more safety in the assessment.
Sufficient rainfall conditions are yield-critical in the next few weeks and months.
