Smaller wheat yields are expected in Tolna County

According to the data of the chamber, 39 percent of the 46,795-hectare sown area of winter wheat was harvested with an average yield of 5.9 tons per hectare. This quantity is better than expected, but falls short of the average of more than six tonnes in previous years.

It is estimated that due to the lack of rainfall in spring, the quality of wheat is also lower than last year: 70 percent of fodder and 30 percent of mill-quality crops can be expected. (MTI)
