Planting rice<\/a> Planting is progressing in Rio Grande do Sul, mainly in the western border region, but heavy rains have hampered the pace of operations. According to data released by Emater\/RS-Ascar, producers need to remove water from their plots to continue sowing and avoid problems with crop establishment.\n<\/p>\n

The establishment of the 2026\/27 crop is still in its initial phase. While planting progresses in the Western Border areas, other producing regions are beginning crop establishment operations.<\/p>\n

In areas affected by higher rainfall, drainage became necessary to allow planting to continue. Excess water also requires attention to avoid difficulties in germination and emergence of already sown crops.<\/p>\n

Rice farmers have intensified the preparation, systematization, desiccation, and management of areas intended for cultivation. These operations include both pre-germinated seed systems and sowing in dry soil.<\/p>\n

In the Southern Region, the water reservoir levels in springs and dams were replenished by the rainfall recorded during August.<\/p>\n

According to data released by Emater\/RS-Ascar, the area projected by the Rio Grande do Sul Rice Institute (Irga) for the 2026\/27 harvest is 861,779 hectares. The initial productivity estimated by Emater\/RS-Ascar is 8,741 kg\/ha.<\/p>\n

In the Emater\/RS-Ascar administrative region of Bag\u00e9, on the Western Border, planting progressed significantly between September 14 and 18.<\/p>\n

In the areas that received the highest rainfall, efforts are focused on removing water from the plots. This measure aims to allow planting to continue and reduce germination and emergence problems.<\/p>\n

Desiccant herbicides were also applied to enable no-till planting, in addition to pre-emergent herbicides and desiccants at the needle stage. The goal is to keep the crop free of weeds at the beginning of the cycle.\n<\/p>\n

In Quara\u00ed, the planted area reached 20% of the municipal estimate. In Uruguaiana, planting reached 15%.<\/p>\n

In Dom Pedrito, a municipality traditionally responsible for the largest rice-growing area in the Campanha Region, planting began at a slow pace. So far, planting has reached 1% of the 34,000 hectares planned.<\/p>\n

In the Pelotas administrative region, planting has also begun. According to data released by Emater\/RS-Ascar, the initial estimate for the harvest is 167,818 hectares.<\/p>\n

Much of the land has already been prepared and leveled, with planted furrows and desiccated cover crops. Producers are waiting for suitable soil conditions to proceed with sowing.<\/p>\n

In the Santa Rosa region, in Santo Ant\u00f4nio das Miss\u00f5es, the expectation is that the cultivated area will remain the same as the previous year, at around 400 hectares.<\/p>\n

In Garruchos, on the other hand, the planned area was significantly reduced and is expected to be around 25 hectares, ceasing to represent a crop of municipal significance.<\/p>\n

In the Soledade region, work on managing areas designated for pre-germinated rice has been accelerated. In areas intended for sowing in dry soil, desiccation operations have begun.<\/p>\n

In addition to the progress of planting, rice prices also showed an upward trend in the state.<\/p>\n

According to data released by Emater\/RS-Ascar, the average price of a 50-kilogram sack of rice rose 0.81% in the weekly survey, going from R$ 78.76 to R$ 79.40.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
