CLIMATE SCENARIO IS MORE FAVORABLE FOR THE 2025/26 HARVEST

The 2025/26 harvest is expected to bring a more stable and favorable climate for Brazilian agribusiness, according to meteorological consultancy Nottus. Persistent cold waters in the Equatorial Pacific will influence weather patterns globally but do not indicate a strong La Niña. CEO Paulo Etchichury notes that conditions resemble 2013, with fewer extreme events and positive effects on agriculture and water resources. In the South, adequate rainfall will support planting despite some heat and short droughts. The Midwest should see ideal conditions for soybean and corn planting, while the Southeast benefits from consistent rains aiding crops like sugarcane, coffee, and oranges. In the North and Northeast, rainfall is expected to persist until May 2026, though regional droughts may occur between January and February. Overall, the forecast points to improved productivity and reduced climate risks.
