If disease harms soybeans during the critical early growth period, it will more than likely reduce yield potential at harvest. Explore ways to set your seeds up for success against field pressures and maximize your ROI.
This week, a Brazil-based consultancy cut its soybean production estimate for the country by 2.1 million metric tons. Between Brazil and Argentina’s drought-impacted crops, the situation has the market’s attention.
As U.S. soybean processing expands, it’s vital to create new outlets for all the additional soybean meal. One such outlet could be Morocco.
With two recent announcements the EPA has approved labels for over-the-top dicamba applications (XtendiMax, Engenia and Tavium herbicides) in 2023 in Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Minnesota and South Dakota.
While Beijing denies the balloon that flew over the U.S. in early February was a government spy vessel, market analysts warn farmers the situation could ultimately impact export demand down the road.
With the expansion of the U.S. soybean processing industry due to the push for green fuels farmers are looking for a new home for the extra meal...and they’re finding it in Morocco.
Morocco has a vibrant and growing protein sector, which presents an opportunity for increased sales of U.S. soybeans and meal.
A young, growing population with an appetite for protein presents an opportunity for soybean meal, in particular.

Ending hunger worldwide may sound like a dream, but researchers at the University of Illinois are making great strides in turning that wish into a reality through the genetic engineering of plants.
Now that harvest has started, progress is seeing at a rapid pace for portions of the Midwest. Soybean prices saw a rebound Thursday, with some analysts attributing it to both export sales and option expiration.
A team of researchers is working to introduce genes that increase the genetic diversity of the plant and allow it to produce higher levels of oil, which could then be introduced in crops that don’t produce oil today.
Efforts to reduce emissions could support soybean demand.

When Mikey Taylor broke the century mark with dicamba-tolerant soybeans, yielding over 100 bu. per acre, he did so in straight-laced fashion, in direct contrast to the dicamba debacle of 2016.
USDA trimmed both corn and soybean yield forecast in the September report earlier this week. One commodity trader says USDA’s yield move in September also indicates more yield changes could occur in the October report.
USDA will release an updated look at U.S. crop yields on Monday. After Pro Farmer’s corn yield estimate last month, the expectation is USDA will cut the corn yield, but there’s another major question some watching.
