Rio Grande do Sul soybean planting reached 23% of the 2026/27 projected area, helped by dry days that reduced excess soil moisture. Emater/RS-Ascar puts the state area at 6.65 million hectares with average yield of 3,183 kg/ha.
Surface moisture is limited in some areas, notably the Fronteira Oeste.
Planting progress is normal and the state area is steady, so the supply outlook is largely unchanged. Dry spots could affect emergence, which is a small upside risk for soybean prices.
After 324 past neutral weather events, Soybeans moved a median +0.0% over 5 sessions (52% higher; middle half -1.4% to +1.7%), and +0.7% over 20.
