Introduction: international agricultural trade network, February 28 Brazil's soybean production is expected to peak at 41.5 million tons in 2001 / 02 (October September), compared with 37.2 million tons last year, despite severe weather in the south, the Ministry of Agriculture said Tuesday Conab, a research institution of the Brazilian Ministry of agriculture, also estimates that soybean production this year increased to 41.4 million tons from the December estimate, despite a six week drought in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil's third-largest soybean producing state, which began in December "Soybean production is definitely at a record high," said Marcus Vinicius pratini de Moraes, Minister of agriculture On the whole, the increase of unit yield can make up for the loss of yield caused by drought in the southern region " Due to the long-term drought, soybean production in Rio Grande do Sul is expected to decrease by 16.7% compared with the previous estimate Soybean crops suffer from drought in the early stage of maturity, which is easy to cause yield loss Conab estimates soybean production in Rio Grande do Sul is down 1.2 million tons from December estimates to 5.8 million tons But it claims that most of the state's soybean crops did not bloom when the drought hit, and that they returned to normal when the rain hit (author:) share to feed Weibo share to:
