Buta farming weather

Soil temperatures today read surface 23.5 °C, 6 cm 27 °C, 18 cm 28.6 °C, 54 cm 27.8 °C. Soil moisture sits at 0-1 cm at 0.41 m³/m³, 3-9 cm at 0.38 m³/m³, 27-81 cm at 0.32 m³/m³. For wheat, the root-zone reading is above the ideal 0.2-0.35 m³/m³ band. Forecast rain (36 mm) roughly covers crop water demand (ET0 25 mm), so irrigation can likely be paused. A suitable spraying window opens around 07:00 on 2026-06-21, with winds at or below 15 km/h and no rain expected. Heat stress is likely for wheat with highs reaching 36 °C (threshold 32 °C). Heat stress is likely for maize with highs reaching 36 °C (threshold 35 °C). Projected growing degree days over the next week: wheat 153, maize 114.
