This forecast is up 1.3% and some 3 million tons from the April crop survey,\u201d Conab reported.<\/p>\n<p>Soybean and maize outputs are expected to be the biggest, followed by cotton and second crop beans. Planted area is up 1.1% to 61.5 million hectares, the strongest number ever.<\/p>\n<p>In Rio de Janeiro, the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) also released its agricultural output forecast. Conab works with crop-years, while IBGE makes calculations using yearly numbers. It said cereal, pulse and oilseed output will be 230 million tons in 2018. Should the estimate prove true, output will have dropped by 4.4% from 2017.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Translated by Gabriel Pomerancblum<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-174940\">Archive\/Ag\u00eancia Brasil<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The National Supply Company (Conab) said 2017-2018 grain and oilseed output is poised to reach 232.6 million tons, which would be second only to the preceding crop season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2315,"featured_media":174940,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[102],"tags":[237,2673,2667,1965,2672,2674,2671,2344,2675,12370,2676],"class_list":{"0":"post-174949","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-agribusiness","8":"tag-agriculture","9":"tag-beans","10":"tag-conab","11":"tag-cotton","12":"tag-crop","13":"tag-grains","14":"tag-harvest","15":"tag-ibge","16":"tag-maize","17":"tag-milho-en-2","18":"tag-soybeans"},"wps_subtitle":"The National Supply Company (Conab) said 2017-2018 grain and oilseed output is poised to reach 232.6 million tons, which would be second only to the preceding crop season.
