USDA's latest outlook puts 2024/25 US oilseed production at 131.2 million tons, slightly higher on cottonseed. Soybean oil export projections were raised by 500 million pounds to 1.1 billion, and the soybean price forecast was cut to $10.20 per bushel.
A lower soybean price forecast and higher soybean oil exports shift the balance between meal and oil values, with cottonseed supply also rising.
