The corn harvest in Mato Grosso has reached 77.26% of the cultivated area, advancing 19.7 percentage points in just one week, according to Imea. Despite this rapid progress, the harvest still trails behind last year’s pace (96.62% in 2024) and the five-year average (86.81%). Meanwhile, the state’s cotton harvest, where Mato Grosso is Brazil’s top producer, has only reached 5.42% of the planted area, significantly slower than the 12.75% recorded at this time last year and the 14.68% historical average.
