USDA: May WASDE predicts soybean oil use in biofuel will expand for 2025-‘26

USDA's May WASDE projects that soybean oil use in biofuels will expand in the 2025-26 marketing year. The report sets the official federal balance-sheet outlook for oilseeds.

WHY IT MATTERS

A projected rise in biofuel use of soybean oil supports demand for soybean oil and crush, which can lift soybean oil prices.
