El Niño in Asia: Prolonged dry weather in several countries affecting plantings and yield potential of the 2015 main season food crops

 

http://www.fao.org/giews/english/imgs/orangebox.gif Prolonged dry weather associated with El Niño has impaired the production outlook for the ongoing 2015 main season in several countries, including Cambodia, Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, Lao People’s Democratic Republic, the Philippines and Viet Nam

http://www.fao.org/giews/english/imgs/orangebox.gif Although rains improved somewhat in the second dekad of July in parts, more rains are essential in the coming weeks to avoid a significant decrease in the 2015 cereal production in these countries

http://www.fao.org/giews/english/imgs/orangebox.gif Elsewhere in the region, prospects for the 2015 main rice crops remain overall favourable so far

http://www.fao.org/giews/english/imgs/orangebox.gif Forecasts pointing to a continuation of El Niño conditions until the winter months of 2016 have also raised concerns for the forthcoming 2015/16 secondary cropping seasons, to be planted from October onwards
