# China triples soybean oil exports amid rising domestic inventories

> China's soybean oil exports in January-September 2026 more than tripled year on year to nearly 800 thousand tons. Commercial soybean oil inventories reached about 1.5 million tons as of October 30, the highest for that period since at least 2024, as heavy crushing outpaced subdued domestic demand.

## Why it matters

Large Chinese exports and heavy stocks add supply to the global soybean oil market, which is bearish for soybean oil prices. Continued high crush rates also keep soybean meal supplies ample.
