FAO/GIEWS - Foodcrops & Shortages 04/01 - BELARUS (23 March)
Crops are greening in southern parts of Brest and Gomel oblasts. Growing conditions for the 2000/01 winter cereal crop have been satisfactory to date. Given good growing conditions until the completion of winter and spring harvests, the aggregate cereal output could be marginally higher than the 4.4 million tonnes produced in 2000. In 2000/01, the country will need to import cereals for human consumption as well as feed.
