Conab reported Brazil's 2026/27 soybean planting at 54.3% of planned area in its 12 surveyed states, up from 42.8% the prior week and ahead of the five-year average of 51.8%. Chicago soybean futures averaged 1.91% lower on US harvest progress and ample supply, while the dollar rose 7.15% against the real to 5.39 BRL, supporting domestic prices.
Faster Brazilian planting and a stronger dollar lower export parity and Chicago values, which pressures world soybean and meal prices. A stronger dollar also makes Brazilian exports more competitive, adding supply pressure.
