Breaking News-RTRS-UPDATE 1-Argentine soy, corn estimates steady - exchange

BUENOS AIRES, Nov 11 (Reuters) - Argentina's 2009/10 soy area is seen at a record 19 million hectares, unchanged from the previous weekly forecast despite dry conditions in some areas, the Buenos Aires Grains Exchange said on Wednesday.
Farmers in Argentina, the world's No. 3 soy supplier, have made rapid progress to plant 2009/10 beans in recent days due to warmer, damper weather in the central farming belt, the exchange said in a weekly crop progress report.
