Argentina's oilseed chamber CIARA said U.S. Commerce Department duties of up to 64.17 percent on Argentine biodiesel imports would lower local soyoil and soybean prices. Argentina is the top soyoil and soymeal exporter, and the government is negotiating with the US.
Lost access to the US biodiesel market reduces Argentine soyoil export demand, which pressures world soyoil and soybean crush values and may shift meal export flows.
