Farming weather

Soil temperatures today read surface 34.6 °C, 6 cm 37.7 °C, 18 cm 40.3 °C, 54 cm 38.5 °C. Soil moisture sits at 0-1 cm at 0.04 m³/m³, 3-9 cm at 0.09 m³/m³, 27-81 cm at 0.18 m³/m³. For wheat, the root-zone reading is below the ideal 0.2-0.35 m³/m³ band. Reference evapotranspiration totals 53 mm against only 10 mm of expected rain — a 43 mm deficit, so irrigation will be needed this week. A suitable spraying window opens around 07:00 on 2026-06-22, with winds at or below 15 km/h and no rain expected. Heat stress is likely for wheat with highs reaching 41 °C (threshold 32 °C). Heat stress is likely for maize with highs reaching 41 °C (threshold 35 °C). Projected growing degree days over the next week: wheat 205, maize 167.
