Grain harvest at risk as drought likely in Central and Eastern Europe, warn researchers

Regions in Poland, Belarus and Ukraine are at a high risk of experiencing a drought in 2025, as an "extremely dry" winter could not regenerate already dried out soils from the previous summer, German researchers have warned. Maps by European climate services show "an exceptionally strong anomaly" in soil moisture compared to long-term conditions in the areas, said researchers at the Leibniz Centre for Agricultural Landscape Research (ZALF). "While Austria and Hungary have received sufficient rainfall to provide a good starting point for agriculture, the situation in Poland, Belarus and Ukraine is tense," the institute wrote in a press release.
