The 2025/26 sugarcane harvest in Brazil is expected to reach 663.4 million tons, a 2% decrease compared to the previous cycle, according to Conab. The planted area saw a slight increase of 0.3%, reaching 8.79 million hectares, but average productivity dropped 2.3%, estimated at 75.45 t/ha. The decline is attributed to adverse weather conditions at the beginning of the cycle and the occurrence of fires in some regions. In the Center-South, the main productive hub, the harvest is underway, but drought, heat, and pests require immediate management adjustments.

The 2025/2026 sugarcane harvest in the Central-South region of Brazil began with a decline in the main agronomic indicators. The data was released this Tuesday (21) by the Sugarcane Technology Center (CTC), through the "De Olho na Safra" bulletin, linked to the institution's Benchmarking Program.

Brazil is expected to consolidate its global leadership in sugarcane and sugar production, with an estimated 671 million tons for the 2025/26 harvest, according to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). To maintain this leadership, the sector is looking to technologies based on artificial intelligence (AI), such as those offered by Taranis do Brasil, as a strategic reinforcement against recurring challenges such as the presence of castor oil plants, morning glory and velvet bean.
