Introduction: Dow Jones Buenos Aires June 18 news: according to the report released by Bolsa on Tuesday, Argentina's 2001 / 02 (September August) corn production is expected to be 13.8 million tons, higher than last month's forecast of 13.5 million tons But even so, the production will remain the lowest in the past 10 years, down from 15.1 million tons last year Officials at Bolsa said the dry weather over the past week has improved the outlook for 17.6% of corn that has not yet been harvested At the beginning of the month, excessive humidity, coupled with rainfall, poses a threat to per unit yield So far, the average yield per hectare is 6.31 tons, with a total harvest of 12 million tons Farmers are cutting back on corn this year because other crops, such as soybeans and sunflower seeds, yield more than corn.
