# Soybean planting reaches 55% of the area served by Capal in SP; rains delay sowing

> Capal Cooperativa in São Paulo reports soybean planting at 55% of its roughly 80,000 hectares, about 25 points behind a typical year. Persistent rain in the southwest of the state limits field work, and the cooperative expects to finish planting between 15 and 20 November.

## Why it matters

Delayed planting in São Paulo adds mild weather risk to the Brazilian crop. It is a local delay, not a national shortfall, so the price impact is limited.
