  • A further sharp increase in shipments in October and November will boost combined South American soybean exports to China to a new high of 44.5 Mn T in July/Nov 2025, representing a substantial increase of 17.7 Mn T from a year earlier and more than offsetting the complete lack of US soybean exports to China, as we discuss in the FLASH report…

  • Prices of sunflowerseed and oil are still very well supported in the nearby, due to still subdued crushing, lack of farmer selling and lower than expected sunflowerseed production in the European Union…

  • Rapeseed meal prices are under pressure, owing to rising rapeseed crushings and spill-over weakness from soya meal…
