Graph of the Day: Grain will be plentiful despite the drought, but the corn crop will fail

The article reports that Slovakia's grain harvest will decrease by 17% compared to last year, but this decline is relatively mild when compared to the 15-year average. The drought has significantly impacted corn production, which is used as animal feed. Despite the dry conditions and heat, Slovakia will still have a solid grain harvest, with yields of nearly 2.6 million tons. This is slightly below the 15-year average, with a difference of just 100,000 tons, or 4%. The article notes that corn and sunflower crops, planted in spring, were more severely affected by the drought. Historical data shows that 2012 was the worst year for grain production in Slovakia, with 1.8 million tons produced, while 2023 saw the highest yield at 3.2 million tons.

Bias read (Center): The article presents factual agricultural data without overt ideological slant.
