A Reuters poll of nine analysts estimates Brazil's 2019/2020 corn crop at a record 102.3 million tons, up 2.3% from 2018/2019. The projection is nearly unchanged from an early August survey at 101.9 million tons.
Dry weather has slowed the start of soybean planting.
A record Brazilian corn crop expands export supply from the second-largest global exporter, which pressures world corn prices. Slow soybean planting and a delayed safrinha window are watched risks that could tighten supply later.
