Cepea, September 16, 2025 – Although estimates indicate an increase in the 2024/25 Brazilian crop, corn prices continued to move up in many areas surveyed by Cepea in the first fortnight of September.

Purchasers are active in the spot market, but many of them avoid closing trades involving large volumes, focused on the high national output and on exports, which are still below the performance verified in the season before and may continue to move at a slow pace due to the beginning of the harvesting in the United States
