BRAZIL TO PRODUCE ITS LARGEST GRAIN CROP IN 2022/2023

Brazil’s grain output is likely to surpass 317.6 million tons in the 2022/2023 crop harvest, a 16.5% increase (44.9 million tons) over the 2021/22 crop, confirming earlier projections as the largest ever produced in the country. “The adjustment reinforces Brazil’s record harvest,” says Conab President Edegar Pretto.

Corn production is expected to be 127.8 million tons, up 12.9% (14.6 million tons) from the crop harvested in 2021/22.
