NEACOF (JJAS 2024) - Rainfall - Chart Description
In JJA, many countries in NEACOF will be at harvest (Azerbaijan) or mid-season (Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Russia , Ukraine) season for the corn crop.
For wheat crop at harvest stage, below normal precipitation may result in water deficit which can result in reduced grain weight. Hot, dry and strong wind in combination with a water deficit during this period causes shriveling of grain.
For wheat crop at mid-term stage, above normal precipitation can lead to yield losses from disease and root problems.
Please see the Methodology for documentation of crop calendar and hazard affecting crops in NEACOF members.

For corn crop at mid-season stage, above normal precipitation may lead to excessive water conditions which can cause poor nutrient update and lead to root diseases such as pythium or crown rot.
