As supply and demand change in early 2025, the Brazilian corn market breaks away from global trends. Logistical hurdles and soaring freight costs for long-distance transportation of corn are expected once Brazil’s massive soybean harvest hits the market. Q1 in 2025 will see the start of the corn harvest in Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina, which will begin in January, followed by Paraná. In February and March, São Paulo and Minas Gerais will supply corn to the market. A small crop from Goiás is expected to join the market shortly.
