SAO PAULO: The Brazilian unit of US grain trader Cargill expects to handle higher volumes of grains and other products in the South American country this year compared with last year, Paulo Sousa, president of Cargill, says.
The optimism expressed in an interview by Sousa reflects a record soybean harvest this year and beneficial weather for Brazil’s second corn crop, which accounts for about 75% of national corn output in a given year.
