Despite these challenges, Brazil is on track for a record soybean crop, which could mitigate losses elsewhere in South America. Soybean meal and bean oil also saw declines. Corn prices were also affected by profit taking and external factors, with slow U.S. exports and decreasing ethanol demand. Attention is turning to weather conditions in Argentina and Brazil.
