Platts aligns Argentine corn and soybean meal assessments publication with Brazilian holiday calendar

Platts, part of S&P Global Commodity Insights, has aligned the publication of its Argentine corn and soybean meal assessments with the Brazilian holiday schedule, effective Aug. 1, 2025.

The assessments previously followed both the Argentine and Brazilian holiday calendars.

As of Aug. 1, 2025, Argentine corn and soybean meal assessments will not be published on national Brazilian holidays or days on which those holidays are observed.

The full Platts holiday publishing schedule can be viewed here.

Platts Argentine Corn and Soybean Meal assessments are published in Daily Grains, Protein Daily and on fixed page PAA0001.
