  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

The spring planting which started in early April in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) is still ongoing. The weather and soil conditions are reportedly excellent. Farmers will plant 2019/2020 corn on approximately 175,500 hectares (ha) versus the 192,073 ha in 2018/2019. That is a 9 percent decrease due to the increased seeds and plant protection costs. An expected corn production is approximately 965,000 metric tons (average yield 5.5 MT/ha). The 2019/2020 wheat will be harvested from a planted area of 71,326 ha and is expected to produce 285,300 MT similar to the 291,515 MT harvested from 72,677 ha in 2018/2019.
