# Brazil crop weather in 2023 is challenging years like 2015
 | World Grain

> World Grain says Brazil's weather this spring has been poor in many areas, and production could fall well below trend unless conditions improve soon. Forecasters link the problem to El Niño, a 22-year solar cycle and the 2022 Hunga Tonga eruption, and compare it with the 2015-16 drought.
