Soybeans and corn rose sharply on commercial and technical buying after USDA stocks came in tighter than expected. Soybean harvest was 7% complete versus a 20% average, and China trade talks are set to resume in October with tariffs still in place.
Mexico bought 120,000 tons of 2019/20 U.S. corn.
Tight stocks and a slow harvest support prices, while China purchase hopes and Mexican demand add to the bullish case for feed grains and soymeal. Lingering tariffs and African swine fever worries cap demand.
