BRAZIL RAINS IN APRIL SHOULD BE WELL TIMED FOR 2ND CROP CORN DEVELOPMENT

What to Watch:

  • Brazil could see widespread warm/wet weather in April in a favorable outlook for 2nd crop corn development
  • Argentina could experience moderate weather conditions next month that should minimize risks to the corn/soybean harvest
  • Paraguay corn development could benefit from eastern rains even if accompanied by significant warmth

 

Northern Plains: Temperatures are rising and will be quite warm the rest of the week, melting the recent snow. A cold front will move through this weekend with limited showers and some cooler air, but the region will be on a rollercoaster ride of temperatures through the end of the month. Fronts will move through, but with little precipitation is in the forecast.

Central/Southern Plains: Warmer air is building over the region and will be record warm late this week after some frost damage earlier this week. This weekend and next week, a couple of fronts will move through but with very little precipitation in the forecast. The recent frosts, followed by heat and dryness, will not be favorable for winter wheat conditions as a lot of areas dry out significantly. Drought continues to grow over the southwestern Plains, increasing stress for wheat, and being unfavorable for the start of planting as well.

Midwest: A blast of arctic air is already moving out of the region, with a little batch of snow to welcome in the warmer air. Despite some cold, conditions for winter wheat are likely to be positive with all the recent rainfall and drought reduction. Several fronts will move through later this week, weekend, and next week, bringing changing temperatures. However, little precipitation is in the forecast.

Delta: Recent rainfall has done a good job at increasing soil moisture and reducing drought, as well as pumping up water levels on all area rivers. The increase in soil moisture should be a positive impact, though long-term drought still resides throughout most of the region. Drier weather this week will not be favorable for reducing the drought further. And if dry conditions continue next week as well, as currently forecast, the tendency for deeper drought may continue.

Brazil: Scattered showers continue across central Brazil throughout the week, favorable for safrinha corn, but may thin out this weekend into next week, which would not be. Dryness over the south has been unfavorable for filling corn and soybeans there. A front moved in on Tuesday with scattered showers that last on Wednesday as well. More rain will be needed there as it is getting much drier. There is limited opportunity for more rainfall on the current forecast.

Argentina: A front finally brought some heavy rain to southern areas on Monday and Tuesday, which will help to stabilize crop conditions. Another front will do something similar for Friday through the weekend with potential for another early next week. Though the rainfall appears to be favorable, much of the crop is either in the midst of harvest, as is the early-planted corn, or heading toward maturity, such as early-planted soybeans. So the rainfall is only somewhat helpful.

 

The player sheet for 3/19 had funds: net sellers of 1,000 contracts of SRW wheat, buyers of 6,000 corn, sellers of 4,000 soybeans, buyers of 8,000 soymeal, and buyers of 1,500 soyoil.

China restricts fertiliser exports, further crimping war-tightened supply

  • China restricts fertiliser exports to protect domestic market
  • China is among the largest fertiliser exporters
  • China has history of controlling exports to keep prices low for farmers

China is clamping down on fertiliser exports to protect its domestic market, a number of industry sources said, putting an additional strain on global markets that were already grappling with shortages caused by the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran.

China is among the largest fertiliser exporters – shipping more than $13 billion worth of it last year – and it has a history of controlling exports to keep prices low for farmers.

Shipments through the war-blocked Strait of Hormuz account for roughly one-third of the sea-borne supply. In mid-March, Beijing banned exports of nitrogen-potassium fertiliser blends and certain phosphate varieties, sources told Reuters.

The ban, which has not been formally unveiled, was reported earlier this week by Bloomberg News.

Added to existing bans and export quotas for urea, only a handful of fertilisers – notably ammonium sulphate – can be exported, five sources said. That would mean between half and three quarters of China’s exports last year are restricted, potentially up to 40 million metric tons, according to a Reuters estimate.

“This pattern is consistent: China restricts supplies rather than coming to the rescue during global tightness,” said Matthew Biggin, a senior commodities analyst at BMI.

“The export restrictions exist because of their tight domestic balance – they’re prioritising food security and insulating their domestic market from price shocks.”

Beijing’s curbs, like its move last week to ban refined fuel exports, come as governments limit exports of products whose inputs have been threatened by disruption from the war, worsening shortages and higher prices around the world.

International urea prices have risen by around 40% from pre-war levels. In China, urea futures are near a 10-month high.

 

China’s Jan-Feb soybean imports from US slump; Brazilian shipments surge

China’s soybean imports from the U.S. plunged in the first two months of 2026 from a year earlier as most shipments, following a late October trade truce, have yet to arrive.

The world’s largest soybean importer brought in 1.49 million metric tons of the oilseed from the U.S. in January and February, down 83.7% from 9.13 million tons a year earlier, according to customs data published on Friday.

Trade tensions had delayed Chinese purchases of the U.S. autumn soybean harvest until late October; state buyers have taken around 12 million metric tons of U.S. soybeans since then.

Traders are looking ahead to an upcoming meeting between U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping to provide more clarity on China’s future demand for American soybeans. On Thursday, Trump said his trip to Beijing had been delayed by about a month and a half.

Soybean imports from Brazil rose 82.7% from a year earlier to 6.56 million metric tons in January and February, as private buyers, who avoided U.S. soybeans due to high tariffs, increased purchases of Brazilian supplies.

However, traders are concerned that Brazil’s tighter phytosanitary checks and China’s prolonged customs clearance could slow the pace of arrivals in the coming months.

Brazilian Agriculture Minister Carlos Favaro said on Tuesday that the government will negotiate soybean inspection and safety requirements for Brazilian shipments to China.

Imports from Argentina in January and February shot up to 3.27 million metric tons from 111,603 tons a year earlier.

The surge was partly driven by a buying frenzy in September after Buenos Aires scrapped export taxes.

“Argentina’s temporary suspension of export taxes in September led to a surge in soybean purchases by China, with the shipments gradually arriving at ports in recent months and lifting imports,” said Rosa Wang, an analyst at Shanghai-based agro-consultancy JCI.

 

IGC Raises 2025-26 Global Grain Stockpile Outlook to 632M Tons

Global grain stockpiles in the 2025-26 season are now seen at 632m tons, up marginally from a February estimate of 631m tons, the International Grains Council said in a report.

  • Wheat stockpile estimate was raised to 283m tons from 282m tons
  • Corn stockpiles forecast was also raised, to 306m tons from 305m
  • The outlook for soybeans stockpiles declined slightly from to 78m tons from 79m
  • Total grains production was increased slightly to 2.47b tons, the largest on record
  • Consumption is also forecast at a new peak at 2.42b tons

For 2026-27 season

  • Global wheat and coarse grains harvests are projected to be smaller in 2026/27, with cumulative output seen 53m tons below the prior season’s record, at 2.42b tons
  • Total supply is expected to contract for the first time in four seasons, but could still be in excess of 3b tons
  • Boosted by Asian demand, global soybean trade is projected at a new peak

Argentina soy regions get much-needed rain ahead of harvest, exchange says

Argentina’s soy-growing regions received much-needed rainfall over the last week, averting potential yield losses as the harvest nears, the Buenos Aires Grains Exchange (BdeC) said on Thursday.

  • The exchange maintained its soybean production forecast for the 2025/26 season at 48.5 million metric tons. Harvest is expected to begin in April.
  • Argentina is the world’s largest exporter of soybean oil and meal.
  • Rainfall provided a “significant improvement” in central and southeastern Buenos Aires province after water deficits persisted for much of the season, the BdeC said in its weekly crop report.
  • The share of hectares rated in adequate-to-optimal condition for soybean crops increased following the rainfall.
  • Argentine farmers have harvested 13% of the 2025/26 corn crop.
  • The BdeC estimates 2025/26 corn production at 57 million metric tons.
  • Argentina is the world’s third-largest corn exporter.

Improved precipitation replenishes soil moisture, raising Argentina’s corn yields

LSEG Research & Insights – Commodities

2025/26 ARGENTINA CORN PRODUCTION: 56.7 [53.0–61.0] MILLION TONS, UP 1% FROM LAST UPDATE

Recent and anticipated precipitation raises Argentina’s 2025/26 corn production forecast by 1% to 56.7 million tons.

During the past two weeks, above-average precipitation and cool temperatures have alleviated drought stress in most Argentine crop regions, particularly in Cordoba, and fully recharged soil moisture. However, the northeastern Pampas region has experience relatively warm and dry weather. Satellite-derived crop vegetation indices (NDVIs) currently display above-median values across major corn-producing regions such as Cordoba (excluding Marcos Juarez), northwestern Buenos Aires, La Pampa, and Santa Fe (except for Casilda), indicating generally good crop conditions. Furthermore, both the EC and GFS weather models project that cool and wet conditions will prevail across the country over the next 10 days. The most significant rainfall is expected in the eastern or northeastern Pampas, which should provide considerable relief from drought stress in Buenos Aires. If confirmed, the combination of enhanced precipitation, adequate soil moisture, and supportive satellite data would suggest favorable conditions for Argentine corn development—particularly for late-planted corn—thereby supporting above-average yield potential despite the drought-related yield losses for early corn in some localized areas.

 

Dry weather and planting delays in southern Brazil lower corn production outlook

LSEG Research & Insights – Commodities

2025/26 BRAZIL CORN PRODUCTION: 139.1 [133.1–145.2] MILLION TONS, DOWN <1% FROM LAST UPDATE

Precipitation deficits in southern Brazil, coupled with planting delays, reduce Brazil’s 2025/26 corn production to 139.1 million tons.

Southern Brazil received just 10–40 mm of rain in the past two weeks with precipitation deficits up to 50 mm, including southwestern Mato Grosso do Sul, western and southern Parana, Santa Caterina and Rio Grande do Sul. These ongoing dry conditions have delayed Safrinha corn planting in these regions with progress as of March 14 lagging behind last year (e.g., Parana at 74% vs 82%; Mato Grosso do Sul at 65% vs 80% and San Paulo at 14% vs 25%). Nationwide, Safrinha corn planting was 85.5% complete, behind last year’s 89.6%, while Mato Grosso is nearly done. GFS weather forecasts predict continued dryness across southern and northeastern Brazil for the next two weeks, raising concerns about delayed planting and potential yield losses as Safrinha crops may miss the optimal growth window. But EC weather forecasts suggest improved precipitation in the Rio Grande do Sul, Santa Caterina, Mato Grosso do Sul, and western Parana. If EC forecasts verified, the expected rain could facilitate the 2nd crop corn planting in these regions. Forward weather needs to be closely monitored. Considering the persistent dry weather and planting delays, we slightly reduced Safrinha corn sown area and yields in the drought-affected regions.

 

Ukraine’s wheat production remains steady despite frost events

LSEG Research & Insights – Commodities

2026/27 UKRAINE WHEAT PRODUCTION: 22.8 [21.7-24.0] MILLION TONS, UNCHANGED FROM LAST UPDATE

Despite periods of ice crusting and severe cold across parts of southern, eastern, and central Ukraine in February, winter wheat conditions remain generally stable. Ukraine’s 2026/27 wheat production estimate is unchanged at 22.8 [21.7–24.0] million tons. Excluding Crimea and the occupied oblasts, production is forecast at 21.7 million tons.

Government assessments indicate that the recent frosts are unlikely to cause widespread damage, although fields with limited snow cover may have experienced localized cold stress. Last week, the Ukrainian Economy Ministry noted that the spring sowing campaign is expected to start roughly two weeks later than usual due to frozen soils and lingering snow. The Ministry also reported that the spring wheat sowing area is projected to reach 186,300 hectares.

Over the past month, most wheat‑growing regions experienced near‑normal to slightly warmer‑than‑average temperatures. Precipitation was above average in northeastern Ukraine, while other key wheat regions saw below‑average amounts. Over the next ten days, forecasts suggest low to moderate precipitation and generally above‑normal temperatures across the wheat belt. Soil moisture levels in parts of western Ukraine remain at a six‑year low and will require continued monitoring.

 

USDA attaché sees China 2026/27 corn imports steady at 8 million T

Following are selected highlights from a report issued on Thursday by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Foreign Agricultural Service post in Beijing:

“China’s MY (marketing year) 2026/27 total feed and residual use of major grains is forecast to increase slightly to 290.7 MMT (million metric tons), up from 289.5 MMT in MY2025/26. Corn production is forecast to rise to 305 MMT, with consumption reaching 323 MMT and ending stocks falling to 168 MMT. Corn imports are expected to remain flat at 8 MMT. Sorghum feed use is forecast to increase modestly to 8.0 MMT, while barley feed use holds steady at 8.7 MMT. Wheat and rice feed use are both expected to remain stable.

“…. Nationwide corn prices grew by 7% year-over-year between the 2025 harvest and the first quarter of 2026, as persistent rainfall issues in North China extended into October, leading to a significant downgrade in corn quality. The scale of downgraded corn is estimated by industry to be 20-30 MMT.”

 

Soy crushers urge Brazil to let consumers opt for higher biodiesel blends

  • Current rules mandate 15% biodiesel in diesel mix
  • Biodiesel producers can support 20% mix, crushers group says
  • Brazil’s state-run oil group raised diesel prices last week

Brazil’s government should allow more biodiesel to be blended into conventional diesel to combat the energy price crisis caused by the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran, oilseed crushers’ association Abiove told Reuters on Thursday.

Brazil’s energy minister last week called for more tests before increasing the mix of biodiesel – made from soy and products like beef tallow, among others – in diesel from the current legally required blend of 15%.

The country’s biodiesel producers are ready to support a 20% mix – known as B20 – said Daniel Amaral, Abiove’s director for economy and regulatory affairs, adding that authorities should let the market use higher blends than legally required if there is demand.

“That alone would provide a cushioning component for those shocks,” he said in a video interview.

India in talks with Russia, Belarus, Morocco to boost fertiliser imports, sources say

  • India has ample fertiliser stocks for now
  • New Delhi keen to secure supplies ahead of next planting season
  • Authorities prioritise gas supplies to fertiliser plants

India, a leading importer of fertilisers, is in talks to increase purchases from Russia, Belarus and Morocco as Middle East tensions and China’s export curbs risk tightening supplies ahead of the summer planting season, government and industry sources said.

India, where farming is a mainstay, imports fertilisers such as urea, diammonium phosphate (DAP) and muriate of potash, as well as liquefied natural gas, a key feedstock for urea production.

The Middle East accounts for roughly half of India’s DAP and urea imports, with Saudi Arabia the largest DAP supplier and Oman the biggest urea supplier.

“We’ve got more stocks than last year, but if the war goes on longer, things could get tight,” said a government source familiar with the matter, who declined to be named as he was not authorised to speak to the media.

“So we’re in touch with Russia and others to bring in more supplies over the next few months.”

Although Indian companies import fertilisers individually to meet their own requirements, they negotiate collectively with overseas suppliers, as the sector is highly regulated and the government subsidises retail sales to farmers.

India has a diversified approach to fertiliser imports, foreign ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said, adding: “We continue to remain in touch with several countries in that regard.”

The Department of Fertilizers has floated tenders in anticipation of the current situation, drawing strong responses, Jaiswal said.

India holds higher stocks of fertilisers, with urea and DAP inventories up 10.7% and 105%, respectively, from a year earlier, according to the latest government data.

Fertiliser demand rises in June and July, when farmers begin planting crops such as rice, corn, cotton, and oilseeds.

Ahead of the summer season, many urea and DAP shipments arrive in India during the March-May quarter.

 

Nebraska fires burn grazing lands, threaten plans to grow US cattle herd

  • Wildfires burn nearly 775,000 acres in Nebraska
  • Land is a grazing resource for about 40,000 cows
  • Producers look for alternative pasture lands, feed

Massive wildfires have burned vast swaths of grazing lands in Nebraska, endangering cattle producers’ plans for production increases that could help ease record-high U.S. beef prices.

The loss of grasslands in the second-biggest cattle-producing state removes a feed source for herds and could delay ranchers from expanding as they struggle with widespread drought, state and industry officials said.

Fueled by fierce winds, fires have burned nearly 775,000 acres since last week, covering an area about the size of Rhode Island, according to data from the Nebraska Emergency Management Agency. It added the causes of the fires are undetermined.

The largest Morrill Fire was about 67% contained as of Thursday after being first reported on March 12, the agency said.

That amount of land is a grazing resource for about 40,000 cows, said Sherry Vinton, director of the Nebraska Department of Agriculture. Though cattle deaths were thought to be minimal, producers could delay expansion plans if they cannot find alternative pasture lands or feed, she said.

“This will have a definite impact because you are in the heart of cattle country there and that’s the area where you’re going to primarily have breeding stock,” said Vinton, a fifth-generation rancher.

Nationwide, cattle inventories have dwindled to a 75-year low over the past seven years as an extended drought raised feeding costs and high prices drove producers to send animals to slaughter instead of keeping them for breeding.

Tight supplies pushed up beef prices. They also hurt profits for meatpackers paying more for cattle to slaughter, and Tyson Foods TSN.N closed a large beef plant in Nebraska this year.

 

US generated fewer ethanol blending credits in February, EPA says

The U.S. generated 1.14 billion ethanol (D6) blending credits in February, compared with about 1.22 billion in January, data from the Environmental Protection Agency showed on Thursday.
