Estimated increase in maize production in Romania

Introduction: according to the report of the Foreign Agricultural Service Bureau of the United States Department of agriculture, Romania's corn production in 2001 / 02 is estimated to be 8.8 million tons, 400000 tons higher than last month's estimate, 4.3 million tons or 96% higher than last year's estimate Production rebounded from the lowest 4.5 million tons in 2000, but is still 3% lower than the 5-year average of 9.1 million tons The harvest area was reduced from 100000 ha to 2.9 million ha, but still higher than that of 2.7 million ha in 2000 / 01 Although the corn crops in the southeast and Danube River Basin suffered from summer drought, the good climate in other parts of the country resulted in the overall yield close to the average value Romania's wheat production in 2001 / 02 is estimated to be 7.9 million tons, 400000 tons higher than last month's estimate and 3.5 million tons or 80% higher than last year's estimate The increase in production is due to an increase in the wheat harvest area based on the government's estimate of the area planted, which is estimated to be 2.5 million hectares higher than last month It is estimated that the barley output of Romania in 2001 / 02 is 1.1 million tons, 400000 tons lower than the last month's estimate, 350000 tons or 47% higher than the 30-year minimum output in 2000 / 01 The decrease in yield is due to an estimated decrease in yield per unit area of 1.93 tons / ha, offsetting an increase in sown area of 569000 ha (author:) share to feed Weibo share to:
