> A Supreme Court injunction kept the 42-hour work week schedule but left the timing of the rest day to collective bargaining pending a plenary decision. The newsletter also reports that Conab expects a smaller rice harvest, that Brazilian wheat import forecasts rose, that the port soybean price reached a 2026 high, and that the federal diesel subsidy for imports was allowed to lapse.
