- Argentina's Rosario grains exchange (BCR) on Wednesday maintained its soybean and corn production forecasts after widespread February rains helped stabilize crop conditions across key growing regions.

  • The monthly crop report kept its 2025/26 soybean forecast at 48 million tons and corn at 62 million tons.

  • Argentina is the world's largest exporter of soybean oil and meal and the world's third-largest corn exporter.

  • February rains exceeded average levels in the Pampas region's west and center-north, supporting soybeans and late corn, BCR said.

  • But the grains exchange said some areas of Buenos Aires province still face water shortages.

  • Some Argentine farmers have already begun harvesting corn; soybean harvest starts in April.

  • Wheat 2025/26 production estimate updated to 29.5 million tons; harvest ended in January.
