Porto Alegre, February 7, 2024\u00a0\u2013 The harvest of the new Brazilian soybean season once again registered strong progress in the period between January 27 and February 2. The less moist climate allowed farm machines to advance well into most of the states of the Midwest, Southeast, and South (Paran\u00e1), improving the pace compared to the previous week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Paran\u00e1, out of a total area of 5.9 mln hectares sown, 22% were reaped, or the equivalent of approximately 1.298 mln hectares. The previous week, the percentage was 15%. In the same period last year, the percentage was 3%, while the five-year average for the period is 9.8%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Climate forecast maps now indicate reasonable rainfall over the states of Minas Gerais, Mato Grosso, Minas Gerais, and states in the North and Northeast regions in the period between February 4 and 10, which could impede better harvest progress, but be favorable to the development of crops sown later. In other states, little or no moisture is forecast for the period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the period between February 11 and 17, moisture should be lower in the states of Minas Gerais, Goi\u00e1s, Bahia and Piau\u00ed. The other states should receive reasonable moisture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
