Above average temperatures can be harmful to winter wheat and fruits (such as nectarines, peaches, apples). For wheat, high temperatures can accelerate the growth cycle, reducing the time for grain development and maturation, which can lead to a decrease in grain yield and quality.
According to Portal Agrolink meteorologist, Gabriel Rodrigues, in relation to winter fruits, they need a certain number of hours of cold to break dormancy and produce quality fruits. Higher temperatures can interfere with this process, reducing fruit productivity and quality.
