# Argentina soybean sales stall near 72% of current harvest

> Argentine farmers sold 72.2% of the 2021/22 soybean crop by early November, slightly behind the 74.2% pace of a year earlier. Weekly sales fell by nearly half from the prior season, after a September surge driven by a government preferential exchange rate. Planting of the 2022/23 soy crop was delayed by drought.

## Why it matters

Slower farmer selling tightens near-term export availability of soybeans and soy meal, which is mildly supportive for prices. The drought-delayed planting adds some upside risk to later supply.
