August soybean oil futures in Chicago rose 6.8% to their highest since April, around $1,035 per tonne. Gains were attributed to biodiesel demand, higher crude oil prices, and a rise in US soybean crush in May, while Brent crude climbed to about $86.3 per barrel.
Stronger crude and biofuel-linked demand lift soybean oil and palm oil prices, and higher oil costs also raise energy-linked feed costs. Vegetable oil strength tends to pull soybean meal and other oilseed prices along.
