Only 6% of the planned areas with corn had to be ordered until last Saturday (last week: 14%).
The seeding of soybean is now closed to 73%, in the previous week, there were only 56% and average the last few years, there were 66% to this appointment. The rains were not so productive that the field work have been hampered at the weekend.
