Consultants predict corn crop production will be 1.3% down
Jan, 09, 2020 Posted by Sylvia SchandertWeek 202003
Agroconsult released this Thursday, 09/09, a forecast of corn production in Brazil in the 2019/20 crop. According to the consultancy, there should be a 1.3% decrease in grain production compared to the previous cycle record, totaling 101.6 million tons.
Even so, the total area planted with corn in Brazil should advance 2% to 17.8 million hectares. The area of the second crop, which is the biggest in the country, should total 13 million hectares, growth of 3% over the previous cycle.
The so-called “safrinha” is likely to affect numbers negatively reaching 74 million tons – 3.5% less than last season. This is because it must have a less favorable planting climate window compared to the previous season, when the work could be more advanced.
To get an idea of Brazilian corn exports in 2019, please see the following graph, made from Datamar’s DataLiner data, The graph shows cereal exports per quarter since 2014:
