SAO PAULO, Aug. 22 (Reuters) – The 2025/2026 soybean crop in the world’s largest soy producer, Brazil, is estimated at 176.5 million metric tons, a 3% increase from the previous cycle, consultancy AgResource said on Friday.
The area of the Brazilian soy crop in the 2025/2026 season is seen growing 2%, the slowest pace in five years, to 48.7 million hectares (120.3 million acres), according to AgResource.
Farmers in Brazil usually kick off planting the new soy crop around September.
Meanwhile, AgResource sees the 2025/2026 corn crop in Brazil, which farmers have already begun to sow, at 138.4 million tons, up 0.7% from the amount estimated for the previous cycle.
The second corn crop, which is planted in Brazil in the same fields as soybeans after soybeans are harvested, is seen contributing to 110.4 million tons of the total, a 2% increase, the consultancy firm said.
It added that the total corn area for the 2025/2026 season in Brazil is expected to expand 1.3%, while the area for the second corn crop specifically is seen edging up near 2%.
