September 2026 CBOT soybeans closed at $12.40 per bushel and September corn at $4.64, both extending weekly gains. USDA reported 1.54 MMT of 2026/27 soybean net sales, led by China and Mexico, plus a 126,000 MT private sale to unknown destinations.
Steady new-crop export buying supports soybean and corn prices, even with good US crop conditions and South American supply limiting gains. Soyoil profit-taking was partly offset by strong biofuel demand.
