In comparison to the long-term average figure the first three months were of above-average temperatures. Rainfalls were very low, it only rained 48,2 mm which is about 13,8 mm less than the long-term average for the months of January to March.
In April, the rainfalls and temperatures had normal values in comparison with 30-years average.
Favourable weather conditions allowed realized of all spring work in April. Wiring and cutting hops went smoothly and efficiently.
The training of the hops varieties Sladek and Premiant began at end of April. We expect the training of the main variety Saaz around the 5th-10th May.
