The USDA February 10 supply and demand report included a scenario note on what could happen if China bought more US soybeans, which would shift global exports toward US shipments. USDA raised Brazil's soybean crop by 2 million tons to 180 million and raised crush in Brazil and Paraguay on higher meal demand.
The US 2025-26 season-average soybean price was unchanged at $10.20 per bushel.
A larger Brazilian crop adds bearish supply pressure to soybeans, while higher crush and meal demand supports soybean meal prices.
