The Rosario Stock Exchange (BCR) reports that the sowing of second-season soybeans in the central region is being compromised by insufficient rainfall and lack of water reserves, with the situation becoming irreversible in the north of Buenos Aires due to high plant loss. First-season soybeans may also fail to reach average yields without significant rainfall. The proportion of regular plots is on the rise, but drought and thermo-hydric stress in the past 30 days have made a normal production scenario unlikely, with a production estimate of 53 / 53.5 Mt no longer feasible and a planting estimate maintained at 17.8 Mt.
