Weather uncertainty in Brazil’s growing regions has limited soybean price declines during the intensification of 2026/27 planting. Dry spells in the South, excess moisture in the Southeast and irregular rainfall in the Center-West and Matopiba are raising crop concerns, while weaker demand for soybean meal and oil and rising global supply are weighing on the market.
Potential weather-related production risks provide a floor under soybean prices, but weak derivative demand and abundant global supply remain bearish for soybeans and processing products.
