Brazilian Corn Harvest Progresses Rapidly

Soybean and Corn Advisor President Michael Cordonnier says 63 percent of Brazil’s crop has been harvested and it is getting larger. “I did increase the Brazil corn estimate this week by 2 million to 116 million tons and that was due to higher yields being reported by IMEA in Monto Grosso,” said Cordonnier.”It’s been hot and dry so the harvesting moves along very quickly. Corn has dried down very nicely and the yields in Monto  Grosso and Goias are positive. They’re disappointing every place else but Monto Grosso and Goias are the two big ones.”
