# ASAP assessment June 2025 - Joint Research Centre - European Commission

> The European Commission's Joint Research Centre June ASAP assessment finds good maize prospects in southern Africa, improved East African yields in bimodal areas, and mixed winter cereal prospects in the Middle East and North Africa. It also flags delayed crop growth in parts of Ethiopia, South Sudan and Sudan, with rising food insecurity during the lean season.

## Why it matters
