# Feed sector sees relief as global grain, oilseed prices slide | Feed Business Middle East & Africa - No.1 Publication for Animal Nutrition, Animal Health & Livestock Industry

> The World Bank's Commodity Markets Outlook projects significant declines in maize, wheat, soybean and soybean meal prices through 2025, with soybeans already down 5% in Q1 2025. The decline reflects improved harvests, cooling energy prices and weaker demand from trade friction between the US and China.
