# La Nina not expected to hurt Brazilian corn | The Western Producer

> Analysts say La Nina is not expected to repeat last year's disaster in Brazil's corn crop. NOAA put an 87% chance on La Nina persisting through December-February, and Brazil's soybean planting is running fast with plentiful rain. Safrinha corn planting in Mato Grosso is expected to be on time.
