I have found this topic confusing of late. I have read several "obscure" articles talking about how dry it is in Brazil, and even Mato Grosso. http://www.soybeansandcorn.com/news/Dec17_15-Hot-and-Dry-Weather-Im... So every few days I read a few more articles, and yet, what we get from the USDA etc. is talk of more beans. Doesn't really seem to add up.
To me the issue usually is people try to lump the whole country or even a whole state as all the same. Funny how we all know a field 6 miles away can get 1-2 inches more or less here locally yet everything there is is discussed like there is minimal variability. The devil is always in the details. Ratio of impacted area to the whole is always the most important.
Would be interesting to see if the folks at des cartes labs that had their models of the us crop do the same modeling in SA.
