# After the Bell | Weekly losses for soybeans, corn on China disappointment - Pro Farmer

> July corn fell 11.75 cents to $4.55.75 and July soybeans dropped to $11.77, the lowest close in three weeks. NOPA reported April member crush of 211.856 million bushels, below estimates. USDA's forecast of the smallest US wheat crop since 1972 limited wheat's downside.

## Why it matters

A below-estimate crush signals softer soymeal demand, while the smallest US wheat crop since 1972 provides support for wheat prices.
