# Estimates for 2019 harvest increase, hit 236 million tonnes | News Agency

> IBGE's June estimates put Brazil's 2019 grain, legume and oilseed harvest at 236 million tonnes, up 4.2% year on year, led by a record 69.3 million tonnes of second-crop corn. Soybean output is estimated at 112.5 million tonnes, down 4.5%, due to dry weather in Paraná, Mato Grosso do Sul and São Paulo.

## Why it matters

Larger Brazilian corn supply is bearish for corn export prices, while the smaller soybean crop tightens soybean and soymeal export availability, supporting those prices.
