💨 Abstract

The article reports that the Tapajos waterway in Brazil, a key corridor for transporting grains from agricultural heartlands to ports, has been halted due to a severe drought. The water level is too low for barge convoys to navigate safely. The navigation is expected to resume in November if forecast rains come. This logistical issue has not impacted export volumes, as companies had already shipped some grains to southern ports.
