The results of satellite observations of the development of winter and spring crops in Russia in June 2023 are discussed. It was concluded, based on the deviations of the maximum values of NDVI vegetation index for winter crops in 2023 from similar values of previous years, that the yield of winter wheat in Russia in 2023 is unlikely to be a record one, but at the same time it may exceed the average long-term level. For the regions that are leaders in the winter wheat production, estimates of the potential productivity of this crop are given, based on the relationship between historical NDVI and yield values. In the main agrarian regions of the European part of Russia, spring crops have developed close to the average long-term norm, though with some positive or negative NDVI deviations in certain areas. It was concluded, based on the relationship between the NDVImax of spring crops and the yield of spring cereals, that the productivity of this group of crops in the southern regions of the European part of Russia in 2023 may become close to the long-term average. In the other regions, the peaks of the vegetation index of spring crops have not been reached yet. At the same time in large areas (especially in the Siberian Federal District, Ural Federal District, in some areas of the Volga Federal District) there are some problems in the development of spring crops due to the current meteorological situation.
