The article presents the results of an analysis based on satellite observations of winter crops state in the south of the European part of the Russian Federation in April 2024. Using the example of Krasnodar Krai, it is shown that in some areas the meteorological conditions of autumn 2023 had a negative impact on the condition of winter crops: heavy rainfall here caused flooding of the fields. A comparison of the intensity of winter crop development in 2024 relative to the long-term average norm and 2023 and 2022 values allowed drawing a preliminary conclusion that the yield of winter grain crops in the south of the European part of Russia is unlikely to hit a record high this year. One of the negative factors affecting the forecast was the results of meteorological data analysis, which showed that the amount of precipitation in the spring of 2024 was significantly below the long-term average. This can lead to a deficit of productive moisture in the top layer of soil.
