Precipitation was mostly less than normal. In the observed areas in areas of cultivation with winter wheat, the development phases are mainly "milk ripeness" - "wax ripeness", in some areas "flowering". The condition of the plants is generally good.
In the south-east of the country (Almaty region and Zhetisu region), "tillering" phases of development are mainly observed in spring grain crops - "the appearance of the lower stem node", in the vicinity of the Lepsy meteorological station of the Zhetisu region, "3rd leaf" is observed in spring barley crops. In the Zhambyl and Turkestan regions, the "earing" - "milk ripeness" phase of development is mainly observed in spring barley crops, in the vicinity of the Asa, Sarykemir, Kordai agricultural posts and the Tole Bi meteorological station of the Zhambyl region, "wax ripeness". The condition of spring barley is mostly good.
In the west of the country, early crops of spring wheat and barley have a phase of development called "tillering" - "the appearance of a lower stem node above the soil surface." The condition of spring wheat and barley is generally good. In Aktobe region, the "3rd leaf" development phase is mainly observed in spring wheat crops, in the vicinity of the Rodnikovka "Tushenie" weather station. There is a phase of development of "nodular root formation" - "tillering" in spring barley crops, and "shoots" have expired in the vicinity of the weather station. The condition of spring barley is generally satisfactory, and that of spring wheat is good and satisfactory.
Spring grain crops are being sown in the northern regions of Kazakhstan (Kostanay, Akmola, Pavlodar, North Kazakhstan).

"tillering", in late crops "shoots" - "3rd leaf". The condition of the plants is generally good and excellent.
In the south of the country, on crops of heat-loving crops (soybeans, rice, cotton, sugar beet) in the Maktaaral, Zhetysai and Ordabasi districts of the Turkestan region, cotton crops have a development phase of "8th real leaf" - "budding". The condition of the crops is mostly excellent and good. In the Kyzylorda region and the Zhetisu region, the "3rd leaf" development phases are noted in rice crops. Soybean crops in the Almaty region and the Zhetisu region have phases of development - "5 real leaves", the condition of the plants is good. In the vicinity of the Kyzyltu meteorological station in the Zhetisu region, the phase of sugar beet development "the beginning of root crop growth" continues, the condition of the plants is excellent.
Corn crops in Turkestan, Almaty, Zhambyl and Zhetisu regions are experiencing a "leaf growth" phase of development. The condition of the plants is good and excellent.
In oilseed crops in the east and north of the country, sunflower, spring rapeseed, and safflower crops in the west of the country have phases of development of "shoots" - "2nd pair of leaves", the condition of the crops is good. In Akmola and Kostanay regions, the "shoots" phase of development is observed in oilseed flax crops.
In legumes (peas, lentils) in the north of the country (North Kazakhstan, Akmola region), the observed areas have phases of development of "shoots" - "the 3rd true leaf". The plants are in good condition.

The condition of the plants is good and excellent.

In the first decade of June, according to the results of observations of soil moisture, the conditions of moisture accumulation in the north, east, southeast and southern regions of the country were satisfactory and optimal. The lack of moisture is mainly observed in the arable soil layer in most areas in the west, center, east, southeast and south of the country.
