Ukraine, a global grain producer and exporter, traditionally grows winter crops whose yields are highly dependent on incoming moisture in autumn and winter.<\/p>\n<p>&#8221;The total amount of precipitation for November-January was only 79.6 mm and was significantly inferior to the long-term average of 117 mm,&#8221; APK-Inform consultancy quoted the Academy as saying. Scientists said the insufficient amount of precipitation during most of the winter period and very low reserves of moisture in the soil &#8221;cause special concern for grain producers.&#8221; Most parts of Ukraine remained rainless during and before autumn sowing and farmers threw seed into dry soil with the hope of winter snows.<\/p>\n<p>Ukraine&#8217;s state weather forecasters said in October that most of Ukraine&#8217;s winter crop was under threat as almost all seedlings were underdeveloped. Farmers sowed 5.24 million hectares of winter grain for the 2025 harvest and wheat dominates the area. Winter wheat accounts for about 95% of all Ukrainian wheat.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/europe\/prolonged-lack-rain-threatens-ukraines-crops-scientists-say-2025-02-05\/\">Reuters<\/a><\/p>\n<p><p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/7-662\/\">Prolonged lack of rain threatens Ukraine&#8217;s crops, scientists say<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[4451,575,3387,559],"class_list":["post-137264","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-crop","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-rain","tag-ukraine"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/137264","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=137264"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/137264\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=137264"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=137264"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=137264"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
