Morning Market Weather Update For Friday, July 14, 2023

WORLD WEATHER HIGHLIGHTS FOR JULY 14, 2023

• Western and northern Alberta and northern and eastern Saskatchewan into a part of Manitoba will get some needed rain next week, but it will be followed by drier and warmer weather that may lead to additional crop stress and production cuts
  • A part of the southern Prairies will miss the needed rain
• U.S. northern Plains and upper Midwest will also experience drier than usual weather during the next ten days and possibly for nearly two weeks and that will raise crop moisture stress eventually for wheat, barley, canola, sunseed, sugarbeets, corn and soybeans
• Lower U.S. Midwest weather is expected to be favorable for crop development in the coming ten days, although warmer temperatures in the second week of the outlook will raise evaporation rates and the need for greater rain a little more often
• Texas weather will continue very warm to hot without significant rain south of the Red River Valley over the next ten days
• Argentina will be dry over the next ten days favoring late season planting and emergence after this week’s rain, but more rain will soon be needed

• Good harvest weather is expected in Safrinha crop areas in Brazil over the next ten days
• Europe rainfall will remain a little sporadic and light in this first week of the outlook with a very warm weekend in store

• Rain and cooling is also expected in northern Kazakhstan and Russia’s New Lands where improved late season crop development is expected after stressful weather earlier this week
• Hot and dry weather is expected in Xinjiang, China and areas east into Inner Mongolia, China for the next ten days and some drying will also occur north of the Yellow River
• India will be quite wet from the upper east coast into the heart of the nation for the next ten days
