Overview of agrometeorological situation of March 12, 2022
Under the influence of negative temperatures on the territory of Belarus there was a freezing of the soil. In the northeastern and eastern regions, where the lowest air temperatures were observed, there is still a small snow cover on the fields. The temperature of the soil at the depth of the tillering node of winter crops in the first decade of March did not drop to dangerous values. However, in some places damage to winter rapeseed, as the least frost-resistant crop, is not ruled out.
In the near future, a contrasting temperature regime and a lack of precipitation are expected. Under such conditions, there will be a loss of soil moisture. Conditions for winter rapeseed will not be the best due to sensitivity to temperature changes in spring.
