# La Nina Ending Wet Season Early for Second Straight Year in Central Brazil

> DTN reports that central Brazil's rainy season has ended earlier than normal for a second straight year, with well-below-normal rainfall. The safrinha corn crop is at risk after last year's poor harvest, and optimism for a good season is fading.

## Why it matters

Brazil supplies a large share of world corn exports in the second half of the year. A weak safrinha crop would tighten export availability and support corn and DDGS prices.
