# What Does the Rise in EU Exports Mean for Soymeal?

> Brazil's agribusiness exports to the European Union totaled 17.74 million tonnes from May to September, up 8.1% year on year, with a sector trade surplus of US$10.54 billion. Soybean complex exports to the EU rose 34.2% in value, with whole beans leading meal, while domestic October prices for soybeans, soymeal and soybean oil in Brazil fell.

## Why it matters

Stronger EU buying of Brazilian soybeans supports export demand and Brazilian soybean prices. Falling domestic meal prices despite higher exports point to ample local supply, which keeps meal costs favourable for feed buyers.
