In Brazil, the harvesting campaign of soybeans is being completed, against which the sowing of safrinha corn is activated.
So, as of February 24, grain sowing was carried out on 39.1% of the planned areas, which, however, is inferior to the figure for the same period last season (52.4%), reports Soybeans&Corn Advisor.
As noted, this backlog is due to delays in the harvest of soybeans due to rains, especially in the south-central regions of Brazil. At the same time, the most active sowing is carried out in the states of Mato Grosso (56.4% of the plan), Goias (35.8%), Mato Grosso do Sul (27.9%), Parana (26%), Minas Gerais (12.3%) and Sao Paulo (10%).
In general, the sown area under safrinha corn in the current MY is expected to be at the level of 14.9 million hectares, which is higher than last season (14.8 million hectares).
