USDA weekly export sales for the week ended July 4 showed soybean meal sales down 75% from the prior week, with beef sales down 46%. Corn net sales were 538,300 MT for 2023/24 and 116,500 MT for 2024/25, with major buyers including Mexico, Japan and Colombia.
Weak meal export sales point to soft foreign demand for US soymeal, which pressures meal prices, while corn sales support ongoing feed grain demand.
