The Institute of Meteorology, Hydrology, and Environmental Research has been compiling and analyzing various observational and satellite data related to drought, snowfall, dzud, and pasture conditions to produce risk assessments and maps for dzud.
According to the Government Resolution No. 286, the current dzud situation assessment indicates that 30 soums in 10 provinces are experiencing white dzud, while 55 soums in 16 provinces are in dzud-like conditions.
As of the January 31 assessment, over 30% of the country's territory is at very high or high risk of dzud, more than 40% is at moderate risk, while over 10% has a low risk, and about 10% is dzud-free.
At the provincial level, most parts of Bayan-Ölgii, Uvs, Khovd, Zavkhan, and Govi-Altai, as well as some soums in Bayankhongor, Selenge, Khuvsgul, Arkhangai, and Övörkhangai, are at very high or high risk.
Compared to the dzud risk assessment conducted on December 31 of the previous year, the area classified as dzud-free has decreased, while the areas with low and moderate risk have increased.
