Argentina: Oilseeds and Products Update

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

Heavy rains during August and September have caused noteworthy damage across Argentina’s main crop areas (specifically in the provinces of Buenos Aires, Santa Fe and Cordoba). Local reports estimate 5-10 million hectares could be underwater or damaged due to these rains. While excess rain has affected the winter crop, this is not currently expected to affect soybean, peanut and sunflower planted area (although planting may be delayed). As such, Post has not modified planting area for these oilseeds crops as there remains time for crop land to recover.
