Colomadu farming weather

Soil temperatures today read surface 24.1 °C, 6 cm 28.5 °C, 18 cm 30.2 °C, 54 cm 29 °C. Soil moisture sits at 0-1 cm at 0.22 m³/m³, 3-9 cm at 0.28 m³/m³, 27-81 cm at 0.4 m³/m³. For wheat, the root-zone reading is within the ideal 0.2-0.35 m³/m³ band. Reference evapotranspiration totals 29 mm against only 11 mm of expected rain — a 18 mm deficit, so irrigation will be needed this week. A suitable spraying window opens around 06:00 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 32 °C (threshold 32 °C). Projected growing degree days over the next week: wheat 160, maize 122.
