Romania: Drought Continues to Stymie Romanian Oilseeds

Although oilseed growers in western and central Romania benefited from early-summer precipitation, farmers in eastern Romania experienced significant drought conditions throughout the growing season. Based on current crop conditions, average sunflower yields are expected to fall by 17.5 percent, soybean yields will drop by 11 percent, and rapeseed yields will decline by 18 percent in marketing year (MY) 2020/21. In September 2020, the Government of Romania (GOR) approved support payments to partially offset winter crop losses, including $233/hectare (HA) for rapeseed.
