Oil prices extended their decline on Tuesday, with Brent falling about 9% and WTI about 10% from Friday's settlement. The selloff followed OPEC+ agreeing to resolve a weeks-long deadlock and add output, and it was driven by fears that rising Delta variant cases would bring lockdowns and weaker demand.
Brent traded near $68.80 per barrel and WTI near $66.78.
Demand worries combined with an agreed OPEC+ supply increase push crude lower, which weakens energy costs and biofuel economics that support grain and oilseed demand. The price implication for feed buyers is softer energy-linked input costs and modest pressure on biofuel-driven vegetable oil and corn demand.
