According to AgRural, the soybean harvest in Brazil for 2025-26 had reached 10% of the cultivated area by January 29, up from the previous week and somewhat higher than the same period last year. The work proceeds without incident, but the market’s attention is drawn to weather conditions. The hot and dry weather is particularly concerning in Rio Grande do Sul, where approximately 15% of crops are still in grain filling and rely on the February weather to determine yield. There are additional risks of loss in later areas of Paraná, Santa Catarina, and southern Mato Grosso do Sul.
