The National Sunflower Association's December 12 bulletin covered a new EPA-approved DuPont seed treatment for sunflowers and soybeans, and the closure of David & Sons' Fresno seed roasting plant with production moving to the Midwest. The items concern crop protection and seed processing rather than market flows.
Neither item is a meaningful driver of feed commodity supply or prices; the seed treatment is commercially available only from 2018.
Not enough comparable past events yet for a historical read.
Moves of each commodity's benchmark from the last close before the event. Historical reads pool past events of the same kind; they describe what happened, not what will. Not investment advice.
