Brazilian grain production in the 2021/22 harvest is estimated at 271.2 million tons, an increase of almost 14.5 million tons compared to the previous season, as shown in the 12th Grain Crop Survey published on September 8 by the National Supply Company (Conab).

Production of the main product cultivated, soy, was marked by high temperatures in important producing regions, such as Paraná, Santa Catarina, and part of Mato Grosso do Sul. This adverse weather condition had a severe impact on productivity, influencing the drop in production. In Rio Grande do Sul, for example, the recorded drop exceeded 50%. In this scenario, the harvest in the country is estimated at 125.6 million tons, a reduction of approximately 10% in relation to the 2020/21 harvest.

In the case of corn, there was a recovery in total production with an estimated harvest of 113.2 million tons, which represents a 30% increase compared to the previous season. While in the first crop there was certain stability in production at 24.9 million tons, due to unfavorable weather conditions, especially in the southern states, the second crop was marked by a recovery in production, around 41.8%, estimated at 86.1 million tons.
