Knives and other utensils covered with mud lie in a drawer at the house of farmers Edite de Almeida, 51, and Joao Engelmann, 54, after floods at the Integracao Gaucha settlement, in Eldorado do Sul, Rio Grande do Sul state, Brazil, May 11, 2024. Theirs were among the nearly 6,500 family farms flooded by this month's torrential downpours, according to analysis of satellite data by consultancy Terra Analytics. The floods have rattled agricultural markets as they disrupted soy harvesting, washed out silos, snared farm exports and killed over 400,000 chickens. The government is lining up rice imports to blunt the impact on national inflation figures. REUTERS/Amanda Perobelli
