Brazil's statistics institute IBGE forecasts 2027 grain output at 346.6 million tonnes, down 2.6% from a record 355.8 million tonnes in 2026. Planted area is projected to fall slightly to 83.2 million hectares.
IBGE links the expected decline to El Niño rainfall changes and higher oil-driven production costs.
A smaller Brazilian crop in 2027 would reduce exportable corn and soybean supply, supporting prices for feed grains and meals. Higher input costs could also weigh on planted area.
After 1,051 past bullish report events, Corn moved a median +0.6% over 5 sessions (62% higher; middle half -0.9% to +2.0%), and +0.8% over 20.
