GEOGLAM Crop Monitor for Early Warning report: February 2024
The CM4EW reports on climate hazards, such as drought, flood, and extreme weather, as well as pests and crop diseases, as part of its monitoring of countries at risk of famine and to provide early warnings of impending crop shortfalls. The GEOGLAM Crop Monitor for Early Warning (CM4EW) is an international and transparent multi-source, consensus assessment of the crop growing conditions, status, and agro-climatic conditions that are likely to impact global production. The CM4EW report is published online each month. This issue covers conditions in January 2024.
Key findings from the publication include:
- Across northern East Africa, harvesting of main season cereals finalized in Eritrea, Ethiopia, Sudan, and South Sudan under mostly poor conditions;
- In Central and South Asia, Winter Wheat is in the vegetative to reproductive stage across southern Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, and Afghanistan;
- In Pakistan, harvesting of Kharif (summer) season rice finalized in January under favourable conditions while planting of Rabi wheat continues under mixed conditions as the country has not received rainfall since early December;
- In Honduras, overall grain production is expected to be near-average, with the exception in areas of Atlántida, Santa Bárbara, and Olancho adversely impacted by aboveaverage rains in early November.
