SAO PAULO, Jan 16 (Reuters) – Brazilian soybean growers will harvest a record soy crop just below 153 million tonnes in the 2022/2023 cycle driven by a rise in planted area and favorable weather in most parts of the country, according to a Reuters poll on Monday.
Though forecasters have cut output projections for southern Brazil due to a persistent drought, production increases in other parts of the world’s biggest soybean supplier will offset losses there, poll data shows.
