SUBREGION V SOUTH

BACKGROUND FOR THE CROP

 

The VS sub-region suffered again a drought campaign. The sowings were done with a water soil profile that did not have chances of refilling during the prior season.

Direct sowing is used in the best soils; the use of fertilizers and other crop modern technologies is scarce.

Rains were scarce during all the winter, with variations in some areas.

Low availability of the humidity was extended in the winter period, with mild temperature during the tilling period. There were no diseases observed, but there were plagues in the dryer areas, especially aphids.

Status of the crops was highly uneven when reaching the stem elongation stage, by the beginnings of October, there were frosts affecting field in good state, as in Patagones, with frosts of -4?? C and 8 hours under zero. In some departments of La Pampa, there were hail with significant damages in all the crops.

The November rains favored some precocious wheat crops, and improved the general status, producing in many cases the appearance of late tillers.

Yields were very low, from 600 to 800 kg/ha on average in the south, with areas that were not harvested due to frosts damages of up to 2,300 kg/ha or more in locations such as the low mountain range comprising Coronel Su??rez, Pigu?? and Guamin??.
