Soybean planting in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, is nearing 93% of the total projected area for the 2022/2023 harvest, which is 6,568,607 hectares. The productivity is estimated to be 3,131 kg/ha. The recent irregular rains in parts of the territory allowed for a slightly greater advance in sowing. As a result, producers accelerated the operation to bring it closer to completion in the areas where rainfall was sufficient to replace soil moisture. Even where rainfall did not occur, some producers with larger crops planted in dry soil while waiting for the end-of-period rainfall forecast.
