09 April 2025, Argentina: The 2024/2025 Argentina corn estimate was left unchanged this week at 49 million with a neutral to higher bias.
The 2024/2025 Argentina corn harvest progressed to 31.3% which was up 9.3% compared to the prior week. Harvesting was slowed due to excessive rain and farmers prioritizing their soybean harvest. Nationwide yield is now 8,210 kg/ha (130.5 bu/ac) which is in line with initial expectations. Yields of corn in northern Argentina may be disappointing due to prior adverse weather.
