Brazil’s most modern rail transshipment terminal for grain began operations at Tocatins in February. The facility has been designed to load both soya and corn, with Agrex do Brasil estimating that this year it will handle around 250,000 tonnes of grain. During the harvest, Agrex believes that it will receive around 200 truckloads a day, with on-site storage available of up to 17,000 tonnes. Trains will leave the terminal bound for the port of Itaqui.
