SAO PAULO, March 12 (Reuters) - Brazil's government is
concerned that heavy rains in the country are disrupting the
planting of the second crop of corn, Agriculture Minister Tereza
Cristina Dias said on Friday, adding that tight corn supplies
are already a concern for meatpackers.
Downpours in states like Mato Grosso have slowed the
harvesting of soybeans and the subsequent sowing of the second
corn crop, which is now being planted outside the ideal climate
window. Brazil's second corn crop, which is cultivated after
soybeans are harvested in the same areas, will represent around
80% of the country's total output this season.
