Planting of Argentina’s 2026/27 wheat crop has reached 98.4% of the projected area.

THE Buenos Aires Grain Exchange (BCBA) It was reported this Friday (30) that the planting of the 2026/27 wheat crop in Argentina reached 98.4% of the estimated area, after advancing 0.7 percentage points in a week. The work is virtually finished. According to BCBA, the incipient progress in the week is due to difficulties in accessing the southern zone of the agricultural area with machinery, where high humidity and soil saturation prevent the normal progress of the work and generate uncertainty regarding the completion of planting plans. In the rest, almost 100% of the crop is in normal or excellent condition due to good water supply. According to the BCBAThe country is expected to cultivate 6.5 million hectares with wheat this cycle, while production has the potential to reach 21.3 million tons.
