Brazilian soybean exports in 2019-20 crop year (September-August) could be unaffected by the coronavirus pandemic, as the world’s largest oilseed supplier has already sold 75% of the crop, according to market sources, with China the top buyer.

According to Hellenic Shipping News, with a strong harvest pace, Brazilian farmers have been able to sell their produce swiftly.
