巴西經濟（Brazil: economy）

Bloomberg.com: Latin America: "Brazil, the world's second-largest soybean producer, will harvest more than expected this year as farmers limited crop diseases and used gene-modified seeds to grow stronger plants, a forecaster said after a field tour.

``I've never seen yields like that,'' Andre Pessoa, head of Agroconsult, said yesterday after a five-day tour in Brazil's Center-West region, which produces more than half the country's output. ``Just by looking at the crops you can tell productivity is a lot higher than we had expected.''

Brazil will produce more than 50 bags of soybeans per hectare on average, or 45 bushels an acre, up from Agroconsult's January estimate of about 47 bags, Pessoa said. One bag weighs 60 kilograms (132 pounds). Soybean prices jumped 84 percent in the past year to a record today."<2008/02/22>
