CBOT March soybean futures settled down 3-1/2 cents at $10.22-3/4 a bushel on February 22, falling to a three-week low. Soymeal fell for a fourth straight session, while soyoil ended higher on oil/meal spreading and strength in Malaysian palm oil.
Traders cited technical selling and expectations of a large South American soy harvest.
Expectations of a big South American crop raise export competition for US soybeans, pressuring soybean and soymeal prices. Soyoil's gain was driven by spreads and palm oil rather than a new supply shift.
