Farming weather
Soil temperatures today read surface 23.3 °C, 6 cm 24.6 °C, 18 cm 25.6 °C, 54 cm 26.8 °C. Soil moisture sits at 0-1 cm at 0.2 m³/m³, 3-9 cm at 0.21 m³/m³, 27-81 cm at 0.22 m³/m³. For wheat, the root-zone reading is within the ideal 0.2-0.35 m³/m³ band. Forecast rain (132 mm) roughly covers crop water demand (ET0 20 mm), so irrigation can likely be paused. No reliable spraying window appears in the next three days — winds or rain interfere; re-check after the next forecast update. Projected growing degree days over the next week: wheat 144, maize 106.
