PR 2024/25 HARVEST: RAINS FAVOR WINTER CROPS

Rainfall between July 22 and 28 in Paraná benefited winter crops like wheat, oats, barley, and pastures, while also interrupting corn and coffee harvests in some areas. Corn second-harvest is 64% complete, with strong yields despite some frost. Wheat and barley crops responded well to moisture, though fungal diseases and aphids require more control. Coffee harvest has reached 80%, with good productivity despite rain delays. Sugarcane harvest continues with stable yields. Fruit and pasture production improved, while bean sales remain weak, discouraging planting. Potato and tobacco harvests continue, though prices are low. Onion is being transplanted, and soybean planting is in the planning stage.
