CODAK notes Brazil's safrinha corn is nearly 70% of its annual corn output and received about 5.1 inches of late-April rain. The 14-day outlook calls for below-average rain and above-normal temperatures, and the crop's NDVI is 0.72.
Analysts expect crop ratings to slip if the dry, hot pattern persists.
A drier, hotter forecast could cut safrinha yields and support corn prices, but current crop health limits the immediate upside.
After 1,465 past bullish weather events, Corn moved a median +0.2% over 5 sessions (54% higher; middle half -1.4% to +1.9%), and +0.9% over 20.
