Cold spring and early summer jeopardize spring field work in the Altai region. About this informed the head of the Altai center for Hydrometeorology and environmental monitoring Alexander Luther at the meeting of the Board of administration on Tuesday, according to "Altapress" with reference to "Interfax-Siberia".
"During December, January and February we consistently go with larger than average temperatures. On March received forecast that by 1-1 .5 degrees it will be warmer mean annual values", - said Lucier.
At the same time it was noted that the beginning of spring field works will be delayed due to low temperatures in April. Subsequent months will most likely be colder than usual.
The weather forecasts have positive aspects: the soil contains a very good supply of moisture. However, due to the oversaturation of the soil water current flood threatens 141 settlement of the region.
With all of this, Altai farmers are pinning their hopes on the current sowing due to large-scale crop failure in 2014.
