    Follow-up of the Brazilian Harvesting of Grains 2009/2010 Fourth Survey January/2010 5

    1. INTRODUCTION

    The Ministrio da Agricultura, Pecuria e Abastecimento [Brazilian Ministry of

    Agriculture, Livestock and Supply], by means of CONAB - Companhia Nacional de

    Abastecimento [National Company of Food and Supply], conducted the Third Survey of

    Plantation Intention for the 2009/10 Crop from December 15-18 2009. The researchedstates were in the Center-South region, the Northeast region, western Bahia, south of

    Maranho, South of Piau, and in the North Region the states of Tocantins and Rondnia.

    The research had as purpose measuring the planting area for the summer crops

    for cotton, peanuts 1st crop, rice, edible beans 1st crop, castor bean, corn 1st crop and

    soybean, and also evaluate the performance of winter crops (oat, rye, barley, wheat and

    triticale), which are in the final harvesting stage.

    In order to perform the fourth Survey on Grain Harvest, CONAB technicians

    contacted the main producer regions in Brazil, interviewing farmers, agronomists and

    technicians from Cooperatives, Agriculture Secretariats, Technical Assistance and Rural

    Extension Offices (official and private) and Financial Agents.

    We thank the extremely important participation and collaboration of professionals

    of the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics - IBGE and of those aforementioned

    offices, as well as from the workers in this office who directly or indirectly participated in

    this work.

    Taking into consideration the users' demands for crop information, the surveys

    have been conducted in strict collaboration with the Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e

    Estatstica - IBGE [Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics], an agency of the

    Ministry of Planning, Budget and Management, therefore consolidating the harmonization

    process of official crop estimates for the main Brazilian crops.

    In this process, both institutions have joined efforts in order to assure the most

    accurate and reliable crop monitoring information within the competence of the Braziliangovernment, thus progressively coordinating methods, sources, counting period, dates and

    hours of disclosure. For such endeavor, there was the priceless and permanent

    contribution of federal, state and municipal public offices and other institutions providing

    agricultural information.

    2. ESTIMATE OF THE AREA TO BE PLANTED (47.88 million hectares)

    With the planting of the first summer crops (cotton, rice, edible beans 1st crop, corn

    1st crop and soybean) almost completed, the survey performed on the second fortnight of

  • 8/7/2019 Boletim Ingles Completo

    Follow-up of the Brazilian Harvesting of Grains 2009/2010 Fourth Survey January/2010 6

    December/2009, considering the used methodology and maintaining the same planted

    area for the second and third summer crops in 2008/09; in the states of the North and

    Northeast region, the planting has not started and the expected planting area for this crop

    is estimated in 47.88 million hectares, an increase of 0.4% or 208.4 thousand hectares in

    relation to the 2008/2009 crop.

    With the exception of soybean, all crops in the survey presented reduction in the

    planting area. In percentage terms, corn first crop presents the greatest reduction (10.7%)

    or 989.5 thousand hectares less, which is explained by a surplus of the product in the

    market and the prices, which are below the expected by the producers.

    The cotton shows a decrease of 6% of the planted area in all states in the center

    South region. The low rates in the internal and external markets are the main factors for

    the reduction in the planting area. With the price recovery in the last months of the yearand the good perspectives of future prices, this situation may change for an equal or even

    superior area regarding the best crop, especially in the states in the center West region

    where the planting is performed until the month of January in after the first harvests of

    soybean.

    The planted area with Rice presents a drop of 2.6% (77 thousand hectares). The

    greatest reduction is in the Center-West region (minus 38.2 thousand hectares), where

    there is the predominance of upland rice and most significant in the state of Mato Grosso(minus 20.5 thousand hectares). In the South Region, there is reduction in Rio Grande do

    Sul due to the difficulties in planting resulting from excessive rains.

    The first crop edible bean shows a reduction of 4.5% (63.4 thousand hectares) in

    the planted area. The low prices of beans in the past few months are the greatest

    disencouraging factor for planting. With the exception of the States of So Paulo, Rio de

    Janeiro, Tocantins and Mato Grosso do Sul; other states have reduced their planting

    areas. The greatest reduction is observed in the state of Paran, with fewer 38.4thousand hectares, followed by Santa Catarina with fewer 12.3 thousand hectares.

    Soybean shows an increase of 6.1% in the area to be planted, which represents a

    rise of 1,319.5 thousand hectares. The reduced cost per hectare in comparison to corn,

    greater liquidity in the marked and greater resistance to drought are the factors justifying

    the replacement of corn by this oleaginous.

    3. PRODUCTION ESTIMATES 141.35 million tons

    The estimated national production of grains at 141.35 million tons is 4.6% or 6.21

    million tons superior to the amount of 135.13 million tons produced in 2008/09 (Table 2).

    The estimated production is related to the favorable weather conditions during crop

    development. With an increase of only 0.4% in the planting area, the 4.6 increase in

    production is result of yield recovery, especially of the first crop corn and soybean, which

    in the 2008/09 crop were influenced by the drought in the states of Paran, Rio Grande do

    Sul and Mato Grosso do Sul.

    We highlight the soybean crop, which shows an increase of 14.0% or 7.99 million

    tons in relation to the previous crop, a change to 65.16 million tons. With the confirmation

    of the estimated area and favorable climatic conditions, the production of this oleaginous

    will be a record one. In the previous crop, production totaled 57.17 million tons. The

    beans 1st crop, even with the reduction in the planted area, shows an increase of 8.3 %

    (111.1 thousand tons), especially because of the recovery in productivity in the state of

    Paran, harmed by the drought in the previous year. Other crops such as cotton, rice andcorn 1st crop presented a decrease in production. Corn reduced in 3.9 % (1.31 million

    tons), rice at 4.5% (572.3 thousand tons) and cotton at 1.2% (22.0 thousand tons).

    4. CLIMATIC INFLUENCES

    In the month of December, the rains were above average in nearly all the

    producing regions and more intense in the South East and Center West states. In the

    South, the rains favored the flowering and grain filling in the crops and at the west of

    Bahia, they were sufficient for the good development of soybean and the implantation of

    cotton.

    However, the heavy rains associated with high temperatures have favored the

    increase of diseases, which has required greater effort for the phytosanitary control in

    crops. Besides, the excessive rains delayed the implantation of some crops, harmed the

    planting of rice in the state of Rio Grande do Sul and it may have caused damaged to the

    harvesting of first crop beans in the states of Paran and So Paulo.

    Follow-up of the Brazilian Harvesting of Grains 2009/2010 Fourth Survey January/2010 9

    In general, the climatic conditions for this summer crop in 2009/2010 and has been

    favorable and record production figures are expected in some regions. On the other hand,

    damages and punctual losses occasioned by wind storms, hail storms and floods, or even

    droughts such as those occurred in the north part of the state of Minas Gerais, Espirito

    Santo and south of Bahia, which may reach significant proportions when they are analyzedat a municipal level.

    For the next three months, the forecast shows above average rains in nearly all

    Center South regions, with the exception of the entire state of Mato Grosso, in the center

    north of Gois, north part of Minas and Espirito Santo, where the rains will be in the

    historical average. This condition will maintain the status and it may harm the harvesting

    works in some areas. In the Northeast, rains will be below average in a strip in the north

    part of the region, which may harm the implementation and development of corn and

    beans.

    5. CROP EVALUATION

    5.1 - COTTON

    Due to the calendar of technical advice, the planting in the larger producing states

    is intensifying. In the months of October and November, producers dedicated themselves

    to the planting of soybean and corn. This way, the area planted with cotton in Brazil, even

    with a certain degree of uncertainty, may reach 792.4 thousand hectares, which

    represents a reduction of 6.0%. Factors justifying the reduction are the exchange rate

    policy, low market prices, and high production costs in relation to other crops.

    Area reductions are verified in the entire Center-South Region, especially in the

    states of Mato Grosso, Gois and Mato Grosso do Sul, according to Table 4. In Bahia,

    data show a small reduction area in relation to the previous crop. There is also a tendency

    of reduction in the State of So Paulo and near extinction in Paran. In the states of the

    North/Northeast regions, the area and the production of the 2008/09, crops were

    considered according to the adopted methodology.

    The planting started for the states of So Paulo, Paran and Mato Grosso do Sul

    in the second fortnight of October. In the other producing regions such as Mato Grosso,

    Gois and the region of Barreiras BA, seeding occurs in November and December and

    may be extended until January. The irrigated cotton in the western Bahia is planted in the

    months of January and February.

    Regarding the production of plume cotton, there is a reduction estimate of 14.8

    thousand tons, reaching 1198.9 thousand tons.

    According to previous reports, these data are preliminary, considering that the

    planting in the main producing regions will be intensified in the second fortnight of

    November (after the implantation of soybean and corn).

    5.2 - RICE

    General Status The rice crop has been increasing productivity, even though the

    area expansion has been facing difficulties due to the lack of adequate land for crops and

    the fact these lands are located near water sources, which are susceptible to water

    harnessing, or derivations for irrigation, since most of the production comes from irrigated

    rice. The planting for the 2009/10 crop in Rio Grande do Sul was not concluded due to

    unfavorable climatic conditions with excessive rain, floods and torrents. The ideal periodfor establishment of a crop is past and the producer meets difficulties for acquiring short

    cycle seeds in order to conclude the seeding, thus avoiding frost that may occur in the

    beginning of the fall. In the region is planted with upland rice, the seeding is under way and

    it will be extended until the beginning of January. In general, the producers have used a

    very good technological package, with reduction in the price for raw materials - especially

    fertilizers. The constant use of land (without the crop rotation) is increasing the infestation

    of red rice, the CL varieties have not been able to fulfill their mission due to segregation,

    and the consequent resistance to the herbicide used to treat this invader.

    Follow-up of the Brazilian Harvesting of Grains 2009/2010 Fourth Survey January/2010 11

    Planted Area The planted area with rice in the 2009/10 crop will be

    around 2.83 million hectares (-2.6%) in relation to the planted area for the 2008/09 crop at

    2,909.0 thousand hectares.

    Increase/Decrease The reduction in planted areas is especially

    occurring for the upland rice, which in most cases is seeded in recently opened areas (first

    planting). The greater reductions are in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul (10.4 %), Minas

    Gerais (6.4 %) and Gois (13.5%). Another relevant factor is the replacement by the

    soybean crop, which has more liquidity in the market. The planted area for irrigated rice

    that is planted in the South region may have considerable reduction due to excessive rains

    and extensive floods in the crops, both in seeded area subjected to replanting and in areas

    that have not been seeded. The area reduction so far in the state of RS is at 2.6% and it

    tends to increase. The final figures will only be available after the end of floods and the

    exhaustion of seething possibility.

    Planting System the planting of irrigated rice is mostly done by the

    direct planting, minimal planting and pre-germinated planting systems. The Conventional

    Planting has been scarcely used and it is only justifiable when the climatic conditions do

    not permit a previous soil preparation as it happened in Rio Grande do Sul that will have

    30% of conventional planting in this crop. In the state of Santa Catarina, there is the

    predominance of the planting system in raised areas, which favor the use of pre-

    germinated seeds. However, the upland rice uses the system of direct planting for planted

    areas and the conventional planting for areas that have been recently opened. In the

    North and Northeast regions, there is a dominance of the traditional conventional planting.

    Weather The excessive rains in the South Region both recovered

    the water sources for irrigation and harm the crops due to constant flooding, especially in

    lower areas and those regions near riverbanks.

    Yield - The national average yield expected for this crop must be at

    4,248 kg/hectare, a reduction in 1.9 % of the 2008/09 crop. The reduction is considered

    normal because the increase of yield in the past crop was result of the record productivity

    in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, the greatest rice producer in the nation, but the area that

    was seeded off their recommended period by the survey, which also contributes for this

    reduction.

    Production The national rice production for the 2009/10 crop is

    estimated at 12,030.2 thousand tons, with a reduction of 4.5% in comparison to the

    2008/09 crop at 12,602.5 thousand tons.

    10/43

    Follow-up of the Brazilian Harvesting of Grains 2009/2010 Fourth Survey January/2010 12

    Crop stage - the area for irrigated rice is in its final stage of seeding in

    the center South region, where this crop reached 90%. Specifically in the South Region,

    the delay in seeding is heavier and 5% between the replanting and the normal seeding are

    yet to the planted. In Mato Grosso do Sul, the seeding is reaching the end, and in the

    regions planting upland rice, it is in the final stage.

    Quality of the product to be harvested - The rice quality in Brazil is usually

    excellent, due to the use of the studied varieties not only for productivity but also for

    cooking. In the irrigated rice, the most planted varieties in this crop are Puit Inta CL, Irga

    424, Irga 422, Irga 417, Irga 409, Olismar and Querncia. The varieties producing grains

    of the patma, long thin types are the consumer favorites this fact caused upland rice

    producers to adopt these type

    Market the market prices are near the minimum official prices with

    small regional and logistics variations. In the state of Rio Grande do Sul, prices vary from

    R$ 28.47 to R$ 29.76 for the 50 kg sack and in the state of Mato Grosso the prices for the

    60 kg sack of long and thin upland rice are between R$ 29.60 and R$ 30.12.

    5.3- CANOLAGeneral Status the planting of Canola in Brazil is still young and the producers

    are in stage of acquaintance and adaptation to the techniques demanded by this crop for

    the good development and production. The existing planting is located in the south part of

    Brazil, most precisely in the states of Rio Grande do Sul, Paran and Mato Grosso do Sul.

    The producers face difficulties in the implantation of this crop due to lack of technical

    knowledge about the planting and harvesting. Due to the lack of this knowledge, many of

    them give up this crop because they do not reach the expected productivity. Another

    faced problem is related to the seed all of the hybrids planted in Brazil are imported and

    acquired at relatively high prices.

    Planted area the canola planted area for the 2009 crop is 30.917

    thousand hectares, distributed in three states of the federation. The largest area is in Rio

    Grande do Sul with 23,000 hectares; Mato Grosso do Sul with 1,850 hectares and Paran

    with 6,067 hectares. The seeding period was concluded in the month of June, and it was

    extended due to the drought in the seeding time.

    Planting System The Canola crop is implanted by the system of

    direct planting. Small adaptations have been made in the existing planters, which are

    11/43

    Follow-up of the Brazilian Harvesting of Grains 2009/2010 Fourth Survey January/2010 13

    necessary for enabling the seeding over straw. The distance between lines must be the

    smallest possible for the propriety machinery.

    Increase/decrease - The planted area has been nearly unaltered, and

    there has only been a rotation of producers.

    Weather The ideal weather for the canola is similar to the wheat,

    except that the canola does not support heavy frost after germination and in the flowering

    stage. In the past crop, the weather was helpful for a normal productivity and a harvest

    without significant losses.

    Yield The average Yield expected for this crop is 1210 kg/hectare.

    The state of Rio Grande do Sul had 1190 kg/hectare while the initial was 1360 kg/hectare.

    Production The expected national production for the 2009 crop is

    37410 thousand tons.

    Crop Stage - All producing states have concluded the canola

    harvesting.

    Quality of the harvested product - the harvested product presented

    excellent quality, due to the climatic conditions and the fact the product does not

    depreciate during the harvesting stage because of the weather, even though the losses in

    quantity are frequent. The production total is destined to the companies fomenting theCanola production by providing seeds, raw materials and the commitment of acquiring the

    total production.

    Market The market is favorable, with prices similar to the soybean

    market price. The price for the 60 kg sack is around R$ 43.00.

    Follow-up of the Brazilian Harvesting of Grains 2009/2010 Fourth Survey January/2010 14

    In this current survey, the planted area with first crop edible beans is estimated in

    1343.6 thousand hectares, a reduction of 4.5% or 63.4 thousand hectares. With the

    exception of So Paulo and Mato Grosso do Sul, all states producing this leguminous

    presented area reduction. This reduction was caused by the trade performance in the past

    crop, with prices below the expected.

    The rains in the Center-South region benefited the crops and provide the

    necessary humidity for the good development of water beans crops. The weather forecast

    predicts excessive rains in the next trimester, which may influence the performance and

    production quality during the harvesting.

    In the state of Paran that harvested 27.9% of the national production in the

    previous crop, there is a forecast of area reduction, currently estimated in 323.6 thousand

    hectares. The low prices in the market have been negatively influencing the plantingstages of this crop. In the survey period, 15% of the planted area had been harvested and

    the rest was in the stages of flowering, fruiting and maturation.

    Despite the area reduction, the state of Paran expected production of edible

    beans for the 2009/10 crop is 522.9 thousand tons, which represents an increase of 39.4%

    above the total harvested in the 2008/09 crop. The expectation for a normal yield for this

    crop justifies the results, since the performance in the past crop was below the historical

    average due to the adverse climatic conditions in the past crop, such as heavy drought.

    In the state of Minas Gerais, second largest producer of beans 1st crop (18.2% of

    the total harvested in the previous crop), there is an estimate for reduction of 7.1% in

    relation to the 2008/09 crop. The low market prices and risk of losses in the maturation

    and harvesting stages are factors justifying this reduction. The planting of cores bean

    dominates the State of Minas Gerais at over 90% of the area.

    So Paulo, opposite to other states, shows an increase of 20% of the edible bean

    1st crop planted area. The excessive rains harming the crops and the South East of So

    Paulo have worried the producers. The excess of water favors the spread of diseases and

    hampers the necessary applications of fungicide for control. The planting of this first crop

    normally occurs in the months of July and August.

    The producers are at about 90% of harvested areas and the remaining in the

    stage of maturation. The domain-producing region of beans shows a decrease in yield and

    production quality. This reduction would be result of excessive rains in the region.

    In the state of Rio Grande do Sul, the weather conditions caused a delay in

    planting and development of crops and difficulties to farmers. The planting was nearly

    finished in the first fortnight of December.

    In case the data are confirmed, the national production for edible beans 1st crop is

    estimated at 1,455.6 thousand tons, representing an increase of 8.3%. The area to be

    planted, as well as its production may have adjustments during the period, depending on

    the weather, market prices and other factors, once the planting of beans first crop occurs

    until mid-December according to the region.

    For the edible beans 2nd and 3rd crops, due to the planting calendar and the

    methodology applied in the estimates, the planting areas of the previous crop were

    repeated by applying the average performance in the last five years, discarding the

    abnormal years and adding technological gain.

    Taking into consideration the three crops, it is estimated that the total area is

    4084.4 thousand hectares, 1.5% last than the previous crop. The Brazilian production

    must be 3645.3 thousand tons, an increase of 4.4% in relation to the past crop.

    5.5 - CORN 1st CROP

    General Status - The implantation of the 1st crop corn started in the Center-south

    region in July 2009 and the conclusion of planting is expected for the month of January

    2010. The corn crop presents highly technical level and the yield has been experimenting

    relevant increases in the past crops. So far, the weather has been favorable in most

    producing regions; there have been no delays in seeding, normal vegetative development

    and flowering.

    Planted Area The planted area with first crop corn 2009/10 will

    be at 8,281.0 thousand hectares, a variation of 10.7% less than the planted area for the

    first Crop 2008/09 which was 9,217.5 thousand hectares.

    Increase/Decrease the prevision for reduction in the planted area for

    this first crop must be from at 989.5 thousand hectares. The reduction is related to the

    volume of this product in the market and the prices that are below the expected by the

    producers. However, the area reduction does not mean a reduction in the national

    production, because the favorable weather conditions in the South Region lead to anormal production.

    Planting System the direct planting is the most common system

    utilized in corn crops, especially for large areas. The conventional system is still dominant

    among small producers, even though there is a rise in the adoption of direct planting.

    Weather the rains are favoring the corn crops - they demand high

    humidity throughout the cycle, especially in the stages of flowering and grain filling. In the

    South Region, there has been great weather condition for the crop development andforecasts for excellent harvesting, a different story from the previous crop, which presented

    huge losses due to the drought. In other producing regions, the weather conditions for the

    corn first crop are also optimal.

    Yield the average yield foreseen for this first crop will be at 3,906

    kg/hectare, 7.6% more than the 2008/09 crop. The increase is result of the greater

    productivity expected for the Center-South region, which was frustrated due to adverse

    climatic conditions in the past crop especially by the bad distribution of rains and theoccurrence of drought periods in the critical stage of crop development.

    Production The expected production for the Corn 1st crop 2009/10 is

    at 32,347.3 thousand tons - an increase of 3.9%.

    Crop Development The planted areas in the Center-South

    present excellent development due to regular precipitations so far. The development

    stages range from the vegetative growth to grain depending on the considered region. In

    other regions, the stages present satisfactory development and they range from seeding to

    vegetative growth.

    Quality of the product to be harvested The prevision is for the

    harvesting of a fine quality product due the technological package used by producers,

    quality seeds and technical assistance.

    Market the corn market is in stage of price recovery in the Center-

    South region; however, prices in the Center-West states are still below the official

    minimum. The prices in the South Region are between R$ 14.60 and R$ 16.60 and in the

    Center-West Region between R$ 8.00 and R$ 15.00.

    5.6 - SOYBEAN

    With the planting nearly defined, the survey performance between the 15th and

    18th of December 2009 shows a planted area of 23.06 million hectares, which

    corresponds to an increase of 6.1% or 1.32 million hectares superior to the 2008/2009

    crop, which presented a planted area of 21.70 million hectares. This result shows thesecond largest cultivated area with the oleaginous. The record remains with the

    2004/2005 crop with 23.3 million hectares.

    The national production is estimated at 65.16 million tons and it represents an

    increase of 14% (7.99 million tons) on the volume of 57.17 million tons produced in

    2008/09 (Table 20). Regarding the yield (kilos per hectare), it was considered the average

    of the last five years, discarding the abnormal crops and adding the technologicaladvance. So, the predicted area was confirmed with the favorable climatic conditions for

    the crops, which has happened so far in the production may be superior to the total

    estimated.

    The increase has been noticed in all states producing the oil seed, especially

    Paran where the plannedgrowth of 313.3 thousand hectares, followed by Mato Grosso at

    311.2 thousand hectares, Rio Grande do Sul at 159.4 thousand hectares and the state of

    Gois with an increase of 161.5 thousand hectares.

    The main factors for the rise in the soybean planting by the producers are lower

    cost per hectare in comparison to the corn, its main competitor, low prices for corn, greater

    liquidity, a crop more resistant to drought and the reduction cost in comparison to corn.

    The planting is expected to finish at the end of December, due to excessive rains

    in the states in the South in region - especially in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. In the

    states of the Center-West region, especially in Mato Grosso that is the greatest oleaginous

    producer, the anticipation of rains (it was already raining in the region at the beginning ofSeptember) enabled the planting by mid-September and the situation will permit the

    harvesting in the beginning of January and the planting of the second crop of corn in a

    more appropriate time.

    The National Institute of Meteorology INMET expects above average rains and

    the weather forecast for the next three months (January, february and march 2010) will

    benefit the crops, which did not happen in the previous crop when the long drought caused

    substantial damage to corn and soybean crops in the South region and at Mato Grosso do

    Sul. The rains occurred into the month of December benefits the development and growing

    of plants for the planted crop.

    The highlight remains with the State of Mato, who leads the ranking of national

    production with an estimated volume of 18.65 million tonnes in an area estimated at 6.14

    million hectares, followed by Paran (13.28 million tons) and Rio Grande do Sul, where the

    research shows a production of 8.76 million tons.

    The fourth crop survey performed by Conab shows a National Soybean Production

    of 65.16 million tons for the 2009/10 harvest, representing an increase of 598.1 thousand

    tons in relation to the last survey and 14% (eight million tons) in relation to the 2000/09

    crop.

    These results are compatible with the market expectations (domestic and foreign)

    for a significant increase in the national soybean production for the 2009/10 season,

    gaining ground from cotton and corn crops due to greater liquidity and profits soybeans

    present in comparison to summer crops.

    With the confirmation of the current levels for the Brazilian Production, the exports

    are estimated at 25.9 million tons and the crushing at 32.9 million tons. It is expected a

    recovery in the final stock levels. For the crushing, this result represents an increase of

    15% in relation to the previous season.

    Part of this increase is destined to answer additional demand for vegetable oil, due

    an increase of 4% to 5% in the use of vegetable oil in mineral diesel within the scope of

    the National Production Program and the use of Biodiesel PNPB.

    Follow-up of the Brazilian Harvesting of Grains 2009/2010 Fourth Survey January/2010 19

    General Status the wheat harvesting is concluded, with satisfactory results in Rio

    Grande do Sul and Minas Gerais. In other regions, the climatic conditions were

    unfavorable to the crops, resulting in loss of production and product quality. So Paulo

    was the most harmed state and a quite reduced amount of the product may be used for

    bread making.

    Planted area the wheat planted area for the 2009/2010 is 2428.0 thousand

    hectares, distributed in three regions and eight states. There are also Rio Grande do Sul

    with 1299.6 thousand hectares (35.4%), Santa Catarina at 117 hectares (4.8%), So

    Paulo at 61.3 thousand hectares (2.5%), Mato Grosso do Sul at 42.4 thousand hectares

    (1.75%), Minas Gerais at 22.8 thousand hectares (0.94%); Gois at 22.6 thousand

    hectares (0.93%) and the Federal District at 2.5 thousand hectares (0.10%). The seed

    period was finished in the month of July, and partially surpassed the period technically

    recommended for the establishment of the crop.

    Planting System The wheat crop in Brazil is almost totally implanted by the

    direct planting system, more than 90% of the planted area. In the states of Minas Gerais

    and Gois, most of the crops are irrigated.

    Gain/reduction The increase in the wheat planted area in the states of Gois

    (18.3%), Minas Gerais (12.3%), and Paran (15.5%) appears to be expressive and they

    are compensated by the reduction in the area in these states: So Paulo (23%), DistritoFederal (13.8%) and Rio Grande do Sul (12.3%), an average reduction of 1.3 % from the

    previous crop. Regarding the production, the estimate reduction is 14.6% due to climatic

    adversities. The excessive rain prevented the producers from applying the adequate plant

    health treatment, exposed to attacks from diseases.

    Weather The wheat crop requires a weather variation different from most grain

    cultures. In the initial stage, the demand is for low temperatures, with support to moderate

    frosts that assist the vegetative cycle. In the flowering and a grain stages, the preferenceis for a climate with low humidity and higher temperatures, which reduce the incidence of

    diseases and favor the quality of grains. In this crop, the weather was not favorable,

    especially in the states of So Paulo, Gois, Distrito Federal and Paran that presented

    heavy rains in the final stage of the vegetative cycle. At Rio Grande do Sul, the weather

    was favorable until the harvesting and only harmful in the final stage.

    Productivity The national average productivity expected for this crop is 2.070

    kg/hectare, 15.7% less than the productivity in the past crop. The states with the betterproduction perspectives are: Minas Gerais has harvested 100% of the area with a

    productivity of 4,303 kg/hectare of good quality product and Rio Grande do Sul that due to

  • 8/7/2019 Boletim Ingles Completo

    18/43

    Follow-up of the Brazilian Harvesting of Grains 2009/2010 Fourth Survey January/2010 20

    the fact the crop was seeded later and the presence of favorable weather, will reach an

    average productivity of 2,100 kg/ha. The greatest losses were at Paran, So Paulo and

    Federal District.

    Production The expected national production for the 2009/2010 crop is 5,026.3

    thousand tons, generated by the average performance of 2,070 kg/hectar

    Crop stage Harvesting concluded.

    Quality of Product to be harvested the product quality is hampered in most of the

    producing states due to excessive rains in the final third part of crop cycle. The producing

    state with greater losses was So Paulo, which presented a low quality product. In

    Paran, 25% of the production is considered low standard and improper for bread

    production. The states harvesting the best quality products were Minas Gerais and Rio

    Grande do Sul. One of the factors contributing for the improvement in quality was the

    utilization of varieties bread class, such as Razes, Quartzo, Marfim, CD117 and

    Guamirim.

    Market The wheat market is a seller and there is still product from the 2008/09

    crop for sale. The commercialization of the production for the 2009/10 is developing

    slowly due to lack of purchasers. Prices vary according to the region: Gois and Distrito

    Federal, from R$ 31.45/60 kg; South Region, R$ 21.62/60 kg; Paran R$ 24.52/60kg and

    Minas Gerais, R$ 31.45/60kg.
