# MBRF extends corn and soymeal purchase positions while monitoring El Niño

> MBRF, a Brazilian poultry and pork producer, says it has secured corn and soymeal supply for the coming quarters as protection against possible El Niño losses. Its vice president of finance said current conditions differ from the last strong El Niño, with normal planting and excellent weather so far. The company expects summer crop corn output of around 30 million tonnes.

## Why it matters

Large feed buyers locking in forward supply adds near-term demand for corn and soymeal and supports prices. The company's view that this El Niño is milder than the last one tempers the risk premium.
