PARANÁ ON TRACK FOR 4 MILLION TONS OF WHEAT IN 2025 HARVEST

According to Sinditrigo-PR, Paraná is predicted to harvest between 3.8 and 4 million tons of wheat in 2025, with a 0.7% decline in planted area, maintaining stability compared to 2024. Despite the dollar-induced cost increase, the present price of roughly BRL 1,600 per ton may promote planting. The state’s mills, which account for 30% of national crushing, are facing changes following the failure of the 2024 crop, and are scheduled to import a record volume of 1.7 million tons, primarily from Argentina, Paraguay, and Rio Grande do Sul. Sinditrigo-PR will host a workshop in March to explore the wheat situation. Although the initial projection was for a 4.3% decrease in the planted area, the subsequent increase in wheat reduced the decline to 0.7%.
