# Despite Drought Brazil On Track to Harvest Record Safrinha Corn Crop

> Conab expects Brazil's second corn (safrinha) crop to reach a record for the 2021/22 season, about 45% above last season's drought-reduced crop. Planted area increased as farmers responded to higher corn prices, and harvest was 5% complete. Dry weather in parts of the country remains a concern.

## Why it matters

A record Brazilian safrinha harvest adds large export supply during the months when US corn exports are typically strongest, which is bearish for corn prices.
