Projection
Meanwhile, for this year there is still no certain value, taking into account that the campaign continues its course with international prices that fluctuate between various factors ranging from weather, through geopolitics, to demand from China.

- In the case of winter cropsimpacts the production cycle 2022/2023 and the future 2023/2024.
