Hedgepoint Global Markets has revised down the forecast for the 2025/26 sugar crop in Brazil's Central-South region, due to the prolonged impacts of the 2024 fires and the drought at the beginning of 2025, which affected sugarcane productivity. Despite the rains at the end of 2024, the TCH (Tons of Cane per Hectare) and the ATR (Total Recoverable Sugars) are below expectations, although the Vegetation Health Index (VHI) has shown signs of recovery as milling progressed, indicating possible resilience.

Paddy sowing during this kharif season has seen a significant increase of 12 per cent, reaching 364.80 lakh hectares compared to last year's 325.36 lakh hectares. The total sowing area for all kharif crops has also risen to 995.63 lakh hectares. While pulses, coarse cereals, and sugarcane witnessed increased sowing, oilseeds and cotton experienced a decrease in acreage.

The Brazilian government announced the conclusion of the phytosanitary negotiation with Guatemala for the export of "in vitro" sugarcane seedlings. According to the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock (Mapa), the agreement represents "value added based on scientific research" and creates new opportunities for the private sector, including partnerships in biotechnology, consulting, and technical assistance.
