# Rain favors cotton and corn cultivation, according to Conab monitoring bulletin

> Conab's Summer Crop Monitoring Bulletin reported mixed April conditions in Brazil. Center-West rains benefited second-crop corn and cotton, while the Southeast, including São Paulo and Minas Gerais, faced insufficient rain and water deficits. Excess moisture in the North delayed soybean and summer corn harvests.
