Soybean Market Overview


Futures news, soy. On July 05 soybean quotations regained the 3-month high mostly due to drought in the USA, which worsens the condition of future crop. As of July 02, the condition of crop worsened again, as shown in Crop Progress report. 33% and 39% of crop is in satisfactory and good condition accordingly, versus 32% and 45% one week ago. Last year these figures amounted to 26% and 53%. Such state of things will most probably lead to crop shortage and, consequently, US production, which can already be observed on soybean cost. This will become clearer on July 11 when USDA monthly report is issued.
