Cepea, January 3, 2022 – 2021 started with expectations of area increase. In that period, producers were focused on the lower supply of wheat in Argentina, on record prices registered in 2020 and on the delay of sowing activities for the second corn crop in Paraná, São Paulo and Mato Grosso do Sul, because of the lower volume of rainfall.
Due to the higher area, the domestic production was a record in 2021, despite problems of the climate during the development of crops, such as frosts and dry weather
