The WMO's seasonal update says ENSO conditions were neutral in June-August 2024, with weak La Niña conditions predicted for October-December 2024. The Indian Ocean Dipole is expected to return to near normal, and Atlantic sea surface temperatures are predicted to remain above normal.
A weak La Niña would bring a wetter Southeast Asia and a drier South America, which tends to support palm oil and rice while raising risk to Argentine and Brazilian soy and corn. The signal is weak, so the price impact is likely limited for now.
