S\u00e3o Paulo \u2013 Brazil\u2019s foodgrain production is likely to break a new record at 315.8 million tonnes in 2022-23. So said the 9th<\/sup> Foodgrain Crop Survey released Tuesday (13) in Bras\u00edlia by Brazilian agency Conab.<\/p>\n

If confirmed, the 43.2 million tonnes growth will represent a 15.8% growth compared to the previous crop.<\/p>\n

The planting area is expected to grow 4.8% from the 2021-22, to 78.1 million hectares.<\/p>\n

Soybeans<\/strong><\/p>\n

The highest growth in the current crop is in soybean production, whose harvest is \u201cvirtually complete\u201d, according to Conab. It\u2019s estimated that it reaches 155.7 million tonnes, up 24% (30.2 million tonnes) from 2021-22.<\/p>\n

\u201cTop growing state Mato Grosso is breaking a new record for this crop at an estimated output of 45.6 million tonnes. Bahia is another highlight with the country\u2019s largest productivity at 4,020 kg per hectare,\u201d said Conab.<\/p>\n

Conab Crop Monitoring manager Fabiano Vasconcellos said these results \u201creflects a good technological package and favorable weather conditions.\u201d<\/p>\n

Maize and cotton<\/strong><\/p>\n

Maize is also expected to post a record output, according to the survey. It\u2019s estimated that its crop reaches an overall 125.7 million tonnes. If confirmed, this will be 11.1% higher (12.6 million tonnes) than 2021-22\u2019s crop.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe harvest of its first crop is almost finished, with an output of 27.1 million tonnes. Its second crop, at an early stage of harvest, is estimated to reach an output of 96.3 million tonnes,\u201d stressed Conab. According to Vasconcellos, weather conditions have been favorable for the development of the crop so far.<\/p>\n

According to Conab\u2019s survey, the second cotton crop is forecasted at 2.98 million tonnes.<\/p>\n

Rice, beans, and wheat<\/strong><\/p>\n

The rice crop is expected to reach some 10 million tonnes, while bean output is forecasted at approximately 3 million tonnes.<\/p>\n

Out of winter cultures, Conab highlighted wheat, with a sown area already reaching 46.9% of forecast \u2014 up 9.7% in planting area, with the culture likely to cover 3.4 million hectares. Estimated production is at 9.8 million tonnes.<\/p>\n

International sales<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cIn this new survey, Conab kept its leading supply forecasts for the 2022-23 crop stable. Thus, a record-breaking volume is still expected for maize and soybean in the country,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n

According to Conab, the \u201cgood volumes\u201d forecasted for maize and soybean production in Brazil allow for shipments of approximately 95.6 million tonnes for the oilseed and 48 million tonnes for the cereal.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut attention still needs to be paid to some relevant outside factors like the United States crop, which may be impacted by weather conditions, as well as the demand from the Chinese market and a potential global recession, and other factors that affect prices and demand for the goods,\u201d remarked Conab Economic Statistical and Statistical Studies and Agricultural Policy manager Allan Silveira.<\/p>\n
