Brazil’s corn, soybean and meal exports rise, beating Anec’s new November projections

Brazilian exports of soybeans, corn, and soybean meal are expected to close November 2025 with strong growth, according to updated estimates from the National Association of Cereal Exporters (Anec). The entity revised its previous forecasts upward, reflecting the solid performance of exports and the robust international demand for Brazilian agribusiness products.

Soybean exports up more than 80% year-on-year
According to Anec’s survey, Brazil is expected to export 4.26 million tonnes of soybeans this month — nearly 500,000 tonnes above last week’s forecast. The figure shows an 82% increase compared with the same period in 2024, driven by strong shipment volumes and growing international demand, especially from China.

Corn also exceeds expectations
The report also revised its corn estimates upward, now expecting 6.04 million tonnes to be exported in November. The previous projection was 5.57 million tonnes. If confirmed, the volume shipped will be 22.7% higher than that recorded in the same month last year.

The result reflects the strong performance of Brazilian corn in the international market, supported by competitive prices and steady demand from Asia and the European Union.

Soybean meal maintains strong shipping pace
Soybean meal projections were also raised. Anec now estimates that Brazil will export 2.47 million tonnes of the product in November, up from its previous forecast of 2.23 million tonnes. The result represents a 42.7% year-on-year increase, driven by higher production and greater demand from importing countries for animal feed inputs.

Brazil strengthens leadership in global grain trade
With the new upward revisions, Brazil consolidates its position as one of the world’s leading exporters of grains and derivatives, reinforcing the country’s strategic role in global food security. November’s performance highlights the efficiency of Brazilian port logistics and the progress of the second corn harvest, which keeps export flows at elevated levels.
