The harvest of second-group crops is entering its final stage

According to estimates by MAIA, the Ministry of Agriculture’s crop production policy department, by the end of this working week, Moldovan farmers had approximately 10 per cent of sunflower plantations, 30 per cent of sugar beet plantations and 40 per cent of maize plantations left to harvest.

The harvest of second-group crops is proceeding with occasional delays, sometimes prolonged, due to rainfall. Experts at the ministry have no concerns regarding the completion of the sunflower harvest – this is likely to take place as early as next week. Due to wet fields, the beet harvest is likely to continue for almost the whole of November, although farmers have only about 2,500 hectares of beet fields left to harvest.

The situation is most challenging in the pulse sector. It is likely that farmers will leave the maize harvest on some of the fields to overwinter – due to the high moisture content of the grain, which, it is hoped, will evaporate over the winter.
