Farmers in the western regions of the country are concerned about adverse weather conditions, which have badly affected the condition of winter crops and the sowing of early spring crops. The dry wind farmers are especially worried.

In the late summer and early fall of last year, the region experienced drought. As a result, we can say that not all crops of this crop are in good condition, says Bogdan Timofiychuk, head of the Bogdan and K farm.

Already sown peas and ardent barley. But due to the dry winds, moisture quickly leaves the ground. Temperature differences are also not favorable for the development of shoots. So, for one day in the morning the temperature was -2 ° С, and during the day +15 ° С. Bukovina agricultural enterprises have already begun the sowing campaign of sunflower.

Smaller farms expect good weather - heat and rain. The sown area in this ode has changed.

Many farms are cutting back on areas under sunflower, since processors buy expensively only high oleic seeds, and lower prices on ordinary ones. Farmers analyze the situation, look at other cultures, I’m looking at the technology of their cultivation, summed up Bogdan Timofiychuk.
