Frequent rain, wet soils, and cooler temperatures slowed soybean planting in Santa Catarina, where 20.2% of the expected area had been seeded by October 24, compared with 22.1% at the same point last season. Some areas reported poor crop emergence and replanting, although a recent drier spell may help narrow the delay.
Persistent wet conditions could delay planting and threaten establishment, creating some risk to the state’s soybean production and offering modest price support. A return to drier weather could limit that risk.
After 1,079 past bullish weather events, Soybeans moved a median +0.3% over 5 sessions (54% higher; middle half -1.4% to +2.0%), and +0.9% over 20.
