# Soybeans down on slower than expected sales to China - Brownfield Ag News

> Soybean futures eased on fund and technical selling after China bought another 126,000 tons of U.S. 2019/20 soybeans, bringing the three-day total to 964,000 tons, below some expectations. Beijing reportedly cleared importers to buy up to 6 million tons of U.S. beans tariff free, and talks resume in October.
