Brazil’s soybean harvest is off to its slowest start in a decade.
Dr. Michael Cordonnier with Soybean and Corn Advisor in Hinsdale, Illinois says the problem is it’s been too wet.
“As of late last week, harvest is about 1.9 percent (complete). And that compares to about 9 percent a year ago. And you look at the total harvesting picture, they only harvested like two and-a-half million tons of soybeans. That’s the slowest amount in ten years.”
He tells Brownfield this should extend the export window for U.S.
