Some rain fell in almost all of the Netherlands last weekend. On the plots of the Boerenbusiness Croptour received between 0,8 and 5,6 millimeters of rain last weekend. Despite the fact that this is relatively little, the crops are grateful. 

The most precipitation fell in the south of the Netherlands last weekend, although it is only a difference of 2 to 3 millimeters. About 4 millimeters or more fell in Flevoland and in the east of the province of Overijssel. 

More precipitation due to irrigation 
Significant precipitation amounts can be seen on the plots in Dronten (Flevoland), in Escharen (North Brabant) and in Oeffelt (North Brabant).

About 3,5 millimeters fell on the plot in Escharen.
