> Chicago soybean prices fell US$15 per tonne over the week to US$438.60, a two-and-a-half-month low; soybean oil dropped US$80.25 and soybean meal fell US$6. In Argentina, nearby soybean prices edged higher, while the May 2027 contract declined. The article attributes the weakness to a large U.S. harvest, lower crude oil prices and a weaker Brazilian real.
