In Brazil, Reuters reported that Brazil’s 2025/26 soybean crop, which is currently being planted, was estimated at a record 177.6 million tons, virtually unchanged from the previous month’s projection, according to the second survey by the National Supply Company (Conab) for the cycle.
The report noted that the projected planting area also remained almost unchanged, at 49.06 million hectares, but Conab cited climate concerns for the initial development of Brazil’s main agricultural crop, the world’s largest producer and exporter of soybeans.
“The Company remains attentive to the weather conditions in the producing regions, monitoring adverse weather events such as those that occurred in Paraná, the irregular rainfall in Mato Grosso, and the delay in precipitation in Goiás, in order to improve the quality of crop performance information as the crops develop,” said Conab in its monthly report.
