- Operations at Cargill's CARGIL.UL Santarem river port terminal in Brazil's Para state remained shut early on Monday as Indigenous protesters continued to occupy the facility, the U.S. grain trader's press office said on Monday.

The protesters forced Cargill employees to evacuate the private terminal on Friday, escalating tensions between local groups and the firm over plans to dredge rivers where grains like soy and corn are moved before reaching export markets.
