NOAA's March 2022 Climate.gov update reports La Niña reasserted itself in February with strong ocean-atmosphere coupling, with Niño-3.4 SST near -0.9°C for the month. La Niña is now favored to continue into northern summer 2022, with nearly equal odds of neutral or La Niña afterward.
A persistent La Niña raises the risk of dryness in the US Southern Plains and South America's growing areas, which tends to support grain and oilseed prices through the season.
