The heat wave that occurred between the end of January and the beginning of February affected the soybean and corn crops. According to the work, corn production will be 57 million tons, 2 million tons less than estimated in January.
And 49.5 million tons of soybeans will be threshed, 2.5million tons more than a month ago. "If you compare this estimate with the projection from early January, the deterioration of crops led to a sharp cut," says the coach.
