Corn output in Brazil, the world’s third-largest producer, was cut by about 3.7 percent after a frost damaged crops in Parana state.
Parana, the biggest corn grower in Brazil, will produce 11.2 million metric tons this year, down from a June 20 estimate of 13.4 million tons, the state’s agriculture secretariat said. Brazil is expected to reap a total 57.1 million tons this year, the nation’s Agriculture Ministry said today.
