# Concerns over Argentine soybean crop raises meal prices in Brazil - DatamarNews

> Soybean meal prices rose in Brazil over the past week, according to Cepea, on firm external demand and concerns about meal supply in the 2022/23 crop year. Hot, dry weather has made it difficult to plant soybeans in Argentina, the world's largest soymeal exporter. Brazil exported a record 19.25 million tonnes of soymeal from January to November, up 24.4%.

## Why it matters

Argentine planting problems threaten global meal supply, so buyers may need to source from Brazil and the US at higher prices. Feed buyers should expect firmer soymeal values while the Argentine crop is in doubt.
