Particularităţile condiţiilor agrometeorologice ale primăverii anului 2025 şi impactul lor asupra fazelor de dezvoltare a principalelor culturi agricole [Articol]

Abstract

The high variability of the average daily air temperatures and the amounts of atmospheric precipitation falling in the spring period creates diverse agroclimatic conditions and an increased variability of the state of the main agricultural crops and, respectively, on the productivity of these crops. Analysis of statistical data and specialized information reveals that the agroclimatic conditions in the spring season on the territory of the republic are basically favorable for the growth and development of the main agricultural crops. The agrometeorological conditions in the spring of 2025 were basically satisfactory for soil preparation and sowing of spring crops, as well as for the growth and development of cereal agricultural crops of the first group. The stable transition of the average daily air temperature through the value of +10ºС, which characterizes the beginning of the active vegetation season of agricultural crops, took place during April 13-16, being basically close to the usual terms. The weather conditions for most of April were difficult for the growth and development of autumn crops, fruit trees and vines, as well as for carrying out spring agricultural work. Frosts, reported on some days of the month, caused severe damage to agricultural crops, especially early fruit trees, which were in bloom or had already formed fruit (apricot, peach, cherry, sour cherry, plum, walnut, as well as vegetable seedlings planted in open ground). Knowledge of agroclimatic conditions for the spring season is particularly informative for establishing the terms of cultivation and the date of manifestation of ontogenetic phases and less informative for forecasting the final harvest.
