> Argentina's core region planted 1.16 million hectares of soybeans in the past seven days, about 15 percentage points above the five-year average for this date, with roughly 70% now sown. Producers are racing to finish ahead of forecast rains, and about 30% of the area remains to be planted.

## Why it matters

Fast planting reduces the risk of late-season yield losses in Argentina, which weighs mildly on soybean meal and oil prices. Margins are firm for soybeans but weaker for corn, which may shift acreage and export supply later.
