Paraguay exported 203,663 tons of wheat by January 2025, marking a 76% increase compared to the same period of the previous harvest. According to the Foreign Trade Report by the Paraguayan Chamber of Exporters and Traders of Cereals and Oilseeds (Capeco), shipments between October 2024 and January 2025 exceeded the 115,701 tons exported during the 2023 season.

This growth represents an increase of 87,962 tons compared to the previous cycle. Brazil remains the primary destination, receiving 99% of the total exports, while Vietnam and Bolivia stand out as secondary markets.

Sonia Tomassone, Capeco’s Foreign Trade Advisor, highlighted that, although January typically sees lower trade activity due to the soybean harvest, opportunistic sales—particularly to Brazil—sustained a steady export flow despite seasonal limitations.
