Weather Extremes Affected the Productive Potential of Soybean in the Brazilian Cerrado, Necessitating Replanting.

SLC Agrícola (SLCE3) announced today that, due to adverse climatic conditions caused by El Niño, there was a 3.3% reduction in the projection of the planted area for the 2023/24 harvest. The impact of below-average rainfall and high temperatures in the Brazilian Cerrado directly affected soybean development, especially in the planted fields of western Mato Grosso, making this region the most affected by drought.

The Actions taken by SLC Agrícola aim to address the challenges posed by weather extremes and ensure that the cultivated area is optimized as much as possible. In light of this scenario, the company is focused on adjusting its strategies to maximize the planting area and minimize negative impacts on soybean cultivation.

Reorganization of Planting to Optimize Productive Potential

Considering the need to optimize the productive potential of crops, the discontinuation of 16 thousand hectares of soybean will be carried out, with the transfer of this area, initially intended for soybean + second crop cotton planting, exclusively for second crop cotton planting, due to its better productive potential

, says SLC Agrícola in the statement.

Additionally, due to the replanting of 19 thousand hectares of soybean, the planted area of second crop corn will be reduced by 7.7 thousand hectares compared to the initially projected area.

Impact of Weather Extremes on the Planted Area

Weather extremes, especially in the Brazilian Cerrado, have required adjustments in SLC Agrícola’s planting projections. The decision to discontinue part of the planted soybean area and reallocating it for second crop cotton planting reflects the company’s commitment to maximizing productive potential, even in the face of climatic challenges.

It is essential to highlight that the replanting of soybean and the reduction of the planted area of second crop corn are actions aimed at adapting to adverse climatic conditions, seeking to minimize possible negative impacts on production.

Challenges and Strategies to Maximize the Planted Area

SLC Agrícola reaffirms its commitment to optimizing the planted area, even in the face of climatic adversities. The replanting and relocation actions reflect the search for effective solutions to ensure the best use of the productive potential of the crops, in line with the company’s projections for the harvest.

The company maintains its forecast for expanding the planted area and continues to invest in sustainable technologies and practices, aiming for continuous growth and improvement of its activities in agribusiness.
