| In absolute terms, 17.8 million hectares were sown

The findings are from the Buenos Aires cereals Exchange, in the second Agricultural Weekly Panorama. As the entity in its report, the rainfall recorded at the beginning of the week in the North of the country's agricultural area made it possible to improve the conditions of planting in areas such as Salta, Tucumán, Jujuy, Catamarca, West Sgo del Estero (NOA) and Sgo del Estero, Chaco and Formosa (NEA).
In turn, in the remaining areas were reported varied rainfall areas, providing an ideal milimetragem in some regions, while other received no rainfall.
With this, in areas such as the nucleus of the North, South, Central East of Entre Ríos and Córdoba North Central new water clocks would be needed to provide moisture for the most up-to-date considered points that are now in total generation performance and do not unreasonably. In some regions of the country the sowing had been closed.
