Favorable weather for developing corn and soybeans is expected to continue in the major growing areas of central Argentina.

WARMER, DRIER IN BLACK SEA REGION

Southeast Europe, Ukraine and south Russia will see mostly above-normal temperatures and much less precipitation during the next seven to 10 days. Conditions will be mostly favorable for overwintering crops. However, protective snow cover will be diminishing.

MORE PRECIPITATION IN PARTS OF NORTH CHINA PLAIN

No significant cold weather is forecast for China. Precipitation during this week may again occur through the southern and some of the central areas of North China Plain. This is somewhat unusual for the area, as it is typically drier during the winter.
