The WASDE update for U.S. 2016/17 soybeans showed higher crush, lower exports and increased ending stocks compared with the prior month's report. The notice is a brief summary of the revised supply and use figures.
Lower exports and higher ending stocks signal looser U.S. soybean supply, which is bearish for soybean and meal prices.
