Fretes caem com maior tempo de espera
A maioria dos doze fretes de grãos monitorados pela Argus caiu ou ficou estável nesta semana no estado de Mato Grosso. A demanda pelo serviço de transporte de milho e soja segue enfraquecida por conta do escoamento lento de grãos nos pontos de transbordo e nos portos, o que tem desestimulado a procura pelo serviço logístico.
Apesar de ainda haver volume significativo de soja e milho em Mato Grosso para ser escoado, o fluxo nos corredores de exportação tem diminuído ao longo das semanas, após o fim da colheita do milho no estado.
Segundo a pesquisa de uma transportadora, durante o mês de setembro, o corredor para Miritituba tem transportado uma média de 40.000t por dia de soja e milho. No pico da demanda, o corredor chega a transportar 65.000t diárias.
Participantes do mercado relatam também que o clima chuvoso nos portos vem atrasando a movimentação e que armazéns estão sobrecarregados de caminhões. Isso eleva o tempo de espera para descarga nos pontos de transbordo e nos portos. Habitualmente, o escoamento acontece um dia após o agendamento do serviço, mas a espera tem sido maior.
Sem conseguir aumentar o fluxo e os volumes transportados, os fretes praticados na região caíram nesta semana. Na rota com origem em Sinop e com destino ao Arco Norte, pela BR-163 até o ponto de transbordo para hidrovia em Miritituba, o frete caiu R$15/t, em média, para R$255-270/t. O trecho Sorriso-Miritituba recuou R$10/t, em média, para R$275-285/t.
Este cenário também contribuiu para a queda dos fretes nas rotas que vão até o terminal ferroviário em Rondonópolis. O trecho Sorriso-Rondonópolis caiu R$12/t, em média, para R$160/t. O trajeto Primavera do Leste-Rondonópolis teve queda de R$2/t, em média, para R$80-85/t.
As exceções da semana foram as rotas com destino aos portos do Sul e Sudeste de Mato Grosso, em que os fretes de grãos tiveram alta em função das condições ruins de frete-retorno. O trajeto Rondonópolis-Paranaguá subiu R$20/t, em média, para R$300-350/t. O trecho Primavera do Leste-Santos teve alta de R$10/t, em média, para R$360-380/t.

EU wheat yield forecasts rise
EU wheat yield forecasts rise
New York, 22 April (Argus) — Warm weather improved forecasted wheat yields in the EU, according to the latest Monitoring Agricultural Resources (Mars) report from the European Commission (EC). In the April Mars report, the EC cited warm spring temperatures as well as adequate water supplies as the main reasons for its increased yields forecast for the 2024-25 marketing year. In Spain and Portugal forecast yields were increased for durum wheat. The EC anticipates soft wheat yields at 5.93t/ha, compared with 5.91t/ha in the prior estimate. Similarly, durum wheat estimated yields stand at 3.47t/ha compared with 3.44t/h in the prior estimate.

Feed grains: CVB corn offers decline
Feed grains: CVB corn offers decline
London, 22 April (Argus) — Sellers of Romanian-Bulgarian corn loading at the ports of Constanta/Varna/Burgas (CVB) lowered their offers on Monday, pushing the price closer to the levels of Ukrainian-origin product loading at the ports of Pivdennyi/Odesa/Chornomorsk (POC). As for Ukraine's feed grain market, prices at the country's deep water ports closed flat on Monday. Trading interest was limited, but could pick back up later in the week. Rail operator Ukrzaliznytsia lifted its suspension of rail deliveries to Chornomorsk. Elsewhere, Argentina's spot corn price firmed on an fob upriver/Necochea/Bahia Blanca basis on Monday. Sellers stayed away from the market, because of prevailing worries about corn output, at risk from rains delaying harvesting, and from yield losses caused by corn stunt . Further out, Argentina's 2024-25 corn crop planted areas could shrink on the year, as producers mull planting less because of issues with the ongoing harvest, market participants said. As for barley, prices for French new-crop barley could see support from farmers' reluctance to sell because of worries around the 2024-25 production. Barley crop conditions have fallen considerably from the previous two seasons, with 67pc of areas rated "good-to-excellent" as of 14 April, down by 24 percentage points (pp) on the year and by 20pp from two years ago. Meanwhile, France's corn planting pace has lagged behind previous years, but if weather improves, farmers could speed it up with limited effect on production, market participants said. Elsewhere, China's Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs (Mara) forecast record corn production in 2024-25 at 295.5mn t, up by 6.7mn t on the year. Such an increase would likely cut China's feed grain import demand. Send comments and request more information at feedback@argusmedia.com Copyright © 2024. Argus Media group . All rights reserved.
Baltimore opens third temporary shipping channel
Baltimore opens third temporary shipping channel
New York, 22 April (Argus) — A third temporary shipping channel has opened at the Port of Baltimore to allow more vessel traffic around the collapsed Francis Scott Key Bridge. Located on the northeast side of the main channel, the new passage has a controlling depth of 20-ft, a 300-ft horizontal clearance, and a vertical clearance of 135-ft. When combined with two other temporary channels opened earlier this month the port should be able to handle "... approximately 15 percent of pre-collapse commercial activity," said David O'Connell, the federal on-scene coordinator. The main shipping channel of the Port of Baltimore — a key conduit for US vehicle imports and coal exports — is expected to be reopened by the end of May, the Maryland Port Administration said earlier this month. The bridge collapsed into the water late last month when the 116,851dwt container ship Dali lost power and crashed into one of its support columns. Salvage teams have been working ever since to remove debris from the water and containers from the ship in order to clear the main channel.

Ukraine's 2024-25 wheat output forecast to fall
Ukraine's 2024-25 wheat output forecast to fall
Kyiv, 18 April (Argus) — Argus forecasts that Ukraine's wheat production in the 2024-25 marketing year (July-June) may decline to less than 20mn t because of lower planting acreages. Argus revised down Ukraine's wheat output to 19.93mn t in the next season, from 20.16mn t projected in November and 22.4mn t forecast for the 2023-24 marketing year. This is also well below the five-year average of 25.87mn t. The decreased production is the results of revised harvested areas, which are now estimated at 4.37mn hectares (ha) for 2024-25, down from November's forecast of 4.55mn ha and the current season's level of about 4.70mn ha. At the same time, Argus increased its average wheat yield forecast for Ukraine in the 2024-25 season to 4.56 t/ha, up from 4.43 t/ha in the November report, based on the latest analysis of crop conditions from its annual crop tour. This is also up from the five-year average of 4.26 t/ha. According to the latest crop tour report, nearly all regions of the country have had good precipitation since the November report, enabling crops to enter winter in good stages of development. And a good precipitation forecast in the second half of April is set to improve the crop. Ukraine's agriculture ministry this week released its preliminary projections for grain and oilseeds production in 2024-25, with the country's wheat output forecast at 19.2mn t. At the same time, the US Department of Agriculture's Foreign Agricultural Service projected Ukraine's wheat output in the coming season at 21.1mn t.
