Brazil soy crop raised again to record high
09.06.2011 10:45 "Agro Perspectiva" (Kyiv) —
Helped by favorable
weather, Brazil harvested a record soy crop in the 2010/11 season, about 1.4 million tonnes bigger than that forecast
a month ago, government crop supply agency Conab said
on Wednesday.
Output reached an unprecedented 75 million tonnes, up
from the 73.6 million tonnes projected in May, Conab said
in its ninth estimate of the crop, whose harvest finished
last month. In 2009/10, producers brought in 68.7 million
tonnes of soybeans.
«The estimated output keeps up the pace of growth seen in
the previous seasons,» Conab said in a report. «The
weather was the main factor for this result.»
