Southern Brazil Will Continue To Dry Down

Kansas City, January 1 (World Weather Inc.) – Several areas in southern Brazil were dry or receive limited rainfall during the past week. The region still had ample moisture to support aggressive growth despite the lack of rain. With at least another week to ten days of drier than normal conditions, additional drying is expected. The need for timely rain will increase later this month to maintain a good environment for soybeans, rice and first-season corn. Other locations in Brazil received enough rain to maintain aggressive growth. Waves of rain will persist in the coming week. Minas Gerais may receive enough rain to promote localized flooding that may damage a minor amount of crop. Overall production potentials will remain generally favorable.

Kansas City, January 1 (World Weather Inc.) – Florida’s citrus areas saw periods of spotty rainfall during the past week.

Although rain totals through early next week will be slightly lower than usual in some locations, most areas will have ample moisture to maintain aggressive growth. East-central and northeastern Mexico will have opportunities for erratic rainfall through this weekend that may disrupt the harvest and general farming activity.
