Climate Impact Company forecasts a third La Niña peak in November 2022, with neutral ENSO by February–March 2023. It says El Niño could develop in the second half of 2023, bringing wet risk to the southern US and northern Argentina/southern Brazil and dryness to India, Southeast Asia, Indonesia and Australia.
A possible shift to El Niño later in 2023 would threaten palm oil, Indian and Australian crops while favoring South American wetness, creating a longer-range supply risk that markets may begin to price.
