Estimates for Brazil's corn, soy production remain unchanged

Brazil's Agriculture Ministry left its estimates for soy and corn production unchanged in a report.

Soy output in Brazil, the world's second-largest producer, will rise to 68.7 million tonnes of the oilseed this year, from 57.2 million tonnes last year, the ministry's Conab crop-forecasting agency said.

Corn production will rise to 53.5 million tonnes from 51 million tonnes a year earlier.
