Emater/RS-Ascar reports that soybean planting in Rio Grande do Sul has reached 39% of the projected 6.64 million hectares, with an estimated yield of 3,183 kg per hectare. Excess rain in the north and dryness in the south have slowed field operations in some areas.
Crops already planted are mostly at germination and early vegetative stages.
Planting delays and uneven moisture in Rio Grande do Sul add modest uncertainty to Brazil's soybean supply. The impact on prices is limited while conditions remain largely satisfactory.
After 328 past neutral weather events, Soybeans moved a median +0.1% over 5 sessions (52% higher; middle half -1.4% to +1.8%), and +0.7% over 20.
