Soybeans closed lower in Chicago on Monday, with the November contract down $6.52 to $442.67 per tonne and touching its lowest level since August 19. In Rosario the physical soybean price held at ARS 545,000 per tonne, while the Banco Nación buying dollar rose 0.75% to ARS 1,536.50.
A sharp fall in Brent crude, down about 7.4%, weakens the biofuel demand case for soybean oil and therefore soybeans, pressuring futures. Harvest in the US is about 88% complete and the USDA projects a record crop, which adds supply pressure.
