DTN reports that cash and futures soybean meal prices were volatile in 2023 and expects prices to ease in 2024. Argentina is on track for a larger soybean crop after favorable El Niño-linked rains.
A larger Argentine crop should boost meal export supplies and pull down meal prices, which is good news for pork and poultry feed costs.
