Soybean harvesting is beginning to spread nationwide with 2.6% harvested compared to 10.6% last year and 3% average with 27% of the late planted soybeans filling grain especially in the southern agricultural area.
In northern La Pampa and western Buenos Aires frost affected fields unevenly and the damage will be assessed in the coming days. The average soybean yield thus far is 3,540 kg/hectare (52.7 bu/acre) which is above expectations. Therefore, the soybean estimate was left unchanged at 48 million tons.
