Rains in Argentina provided an opportunity for plantings.

Recent rains in Argentina have had a positive impact on wheat crops following a dry July. Precipitation of 10-30 mm in the east and center of the Pampas region improved the condition of the crops and will aid in their growth. Additional rains are expected in September. Corn crops have also benefited from the rainfall.

Experts from the Rosario Grain Exchange (BCR) announced that the rains that fell last weekend in a significant part of Argentina's agricultural region had a positive impact on the wheat crops after the driest July in the country in almost 60 years, Reuters reports.

According to their data, in the last 48 hours, between 10 and 30 mm of rainfall was recorded in the east and center of the Pampas region, which should improve the condition of the wheat crops and enable farmers to start applying fertilizers.

The BCR report says: "The rains came at a critical moment for the wheat crops, as their condition was deteriorating from week to week, with 10% of them in quite poor condition. Additional rainfall is expected in early September, which will continue to stimulate the growth and development of the wheat crops."

Furthermore, the precipitation also had a positive impact on the development of the corn crops.
