According to AgRural, Brazil's 2026/27 soybean planting reached 64% of the estimated area through Thursday (5 November), up 11 percentage points on the prior week and ahead of the 61% recorded at the same point last season. Irregular rainfall is a concern in the Cerrado, particularly in Mato Grosso and Matopiba, where soil moisture shortfalls threaten stand establishment and could force replanting.
Planting ahead of last year supports near-term supply expectations, but moisture deficits in Mato Grosso and Matopiba could cut yields and raise replanting costs, which would tighten soybean and meal supply later in the season.
