Soybean planting in Brazil’s Mato Grosso do Sul state reached 83.1% of the planned 2026/27 area, with 4.05 million hectares sown, according to Aprosoja/MS. Lack of rain has halted planting on some northern farms, while storms and hail damaged crops in three municipalities; 95.1% of planted fields are still rated in good condition.
The state’s production estimate is 15.33 million tonnes, down 8.4%.
Dryness could delay planting and threaten yields, tightening regional soybean supply and lending support to soybean prices if conditions worsen.
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.
