• Soybean Surge: Midwest Harvest Progress, Brazil's Dryness Drive Prices
    Oct 22 2025

    This is your Daily Soybeans Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark podcast.

    Welcome back to Daily Soybeans Price Tracker. I am Vanessa Clark, here with your essential update on the soybean market for Wednesday, October twenty-second, twenty twenty-five.

    Let’s start with the most important number on everyone’s mind: today, November soybean futures on the Chicago Board of Trade are trading at around ten dollars and thirty-four cents per bushel. That is up just over three cents from the previous session, as reported by Total Farm Marketing. National average cash prices have also nudged slightly higher, now sitting at about nine dollars and sixty-two cents per bushel, according to Cooperative Farmers Elevator.

    So, what is fueling this mild rebound in soybean prices? Several factors are at play this week. The US soybean harvest is making steady progress—current estimates put it around seventy-three to seventy-five percent complete. That is just ahead of the five-year average, but still lagging last year’s record pace, in part due to patchy and sometimes wet weather across the Midwest. According to Advance Trading, the short-term forecast suggests lighter rain this week for the northern states, but a wetter pattern could develop as we move into next week, which may affect the final push of harvest.

    Big picture, this is a season marked by global uncertainty. South America, especially Brazil, remains a key player. While Brazilian soybean planting is underway, recent rains have been less than ideal, leaving many areas in need of more moisture for strong crop development. Continued dryness could be a supportive factor for US soybean prices if Brazil’s crop potential gets trimmed.

    Another major theme is the ongoing uncertainty surrounding trade policy and global demand. As reported by multiple sources, traders are watching closely for any developments from Washington, especially hints at trade meetings or proposed new tariffs on Chinese goods. This unpredictability keeps markets on edge and can sway price direction day to day.

    For practical tips, if you are a producer, now is a critical time to review your risk management strategy. With crop insurance price discovery wrapping up soon and volatility in both weather and trade policy, consider locking in a portion of your crop if prices align with your goals. For buyers or anyone following the market for future purchasing, keep a close eye on export pace and South American planting progress, as both will drive prices in the coming months.

    That is your Daily Soybeans Price Tracker for today. I am Vanessa Clark, and I hope you are feeling a little more informed and ready to make the best decisions for your operation, or just follow along as this fascinating market continues to change.

  • Soybeans Soar: Trade Talks, Brazil's Bounty, & Your Bottom Line
    Oct 23 2025
    https://www.instagram.com/vanessaclarkipai

    This is your Daily Soybeans Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark podcast.

    Hello and welcome back to the Daily Soybeans Price Tracker. I’m Vanessa Clark, here to bring you all the latest news, updates, and insider knowledge on today’s soybean market. Whether you’re a farmer, trader, or just curious about global food prices, this is your place for everything soy.

    It’s Thursday, October twenty-third, and we’re seeing soybeans taking another step up in the commodity spotlight. Today, soybeans are trading at one thousand forty-four dollars per bushel, up about point nine percent from yesterday. Over the last month, prices have climbed three point five percent, and if you compare today with the same date last year, the market is up almost five percent. That’s solid growth, especially in a season that’s been marked by uncertainty around global demand and supply.

    So what’s driving the momentum? First, optimism is swirling around a potential trade deal between the United States and China. President Trump is talking positively about upcoming negotiations with President Xi Jinping, and there’s real hope among traders that China could resume large-scale purchases of American soybeans. As the world’s biggest soybean importer, China’s decisions make waves in this market. Japan is also stepping in, with its new government finalizing plans to buy more soybeans from the US, hoping to sweeten trade talks.

    On the supply side, the story is equally interesting. Brazil is on track for a record harvest this year, with estimates from industry groups expecting one hundred seventy-eight point five million metric tons. That’s up about seven million from last year. Meanwhile, US export reports have temporarily halted due to the federal funding lapse, which means private surveys are now guiding market outlooks. In these conditions, small news can make a big impact on trading sentiment and price direction.

    If you’re a producer, here’s a practical tip: Keep an eye not just on futures prices, but on news about trade negotiations. These headlines can cause quick swings in demand and pricing. For buyers, watching export patterns from Brazil and the US can help inform your purchasing decisions, particularly as China and other major players adjust their orders.

    A common listener question is whether these price gains will hold. Well, some market models are forecasting soybeans to trade slightly lower, around one thousand thirty-one dollars by the end of the quarter, but potentially climb to nearly one thousand seventy-seven dollars within a year. All eyes will be on South American harvest reports and any breakthroughs in international trade.

    One more thing before I sign off. If you want to get the most out of this podcast, remember to subscribe and turn on notifications so you never miss a market update. Whether the price is up or down, knowledge is profit, and together we’ll make sure you’re always savvy about your soybeans.

  • Soy Savvy: Vanessa's Beans Means Business Broadcast
    Oct 21 2025
    https://www.instagram.com/vanessaclarkipai

    This is your Daily Soybeans Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark podcast.

    Hello and welcome to the Daily Soybeans Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark—I’m your host, Vanessa, and I’m so glad you’re here! Whether you’re trading, farming, or just curious about where soybean prices are today, I’ve got the latest scoop delivered straight to you in a way that’s easy to understand—no jargon, just real talk.

    Let’s jump right into today’s soybean market update. As of Tuesday, October 21st, the current trading price for November 2025 soybean futures on the Chicago Board of Trade is $10.32 and three-quarters per bushel, up about a penny from yesterday’s close, according to market tracking data. If you’re looking at the cash price, that’s at $9.59 and a half, a gain of about one and a quarter cents. For longer-range contracts, January 2026 soybeans are at $10.51, and March 2026 is at $10.64 and a half per bushel. Prices have actually been on the rise for four straight sessions, hitting an eight-week high earlier, as traders react to a mix of technical buying and some real optimism in the air around US-China trade talks.

    So, what’s moving the needle this week? Well, US President Donald Trump has been making some bold statements about a possible deal with China, saying he’s confident Beijing will start buying American soybeans again—maybe even at the levels they were before trade tensions flared up. The big face-to-face meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping is set for the end of the month on the sidelines of the APEC Summit in South Korea, and traders are hanging on every word, even though we’ve been down this road before. The market’s reacting to the hope, not necessarily the reality—yet. Meanwhile, China’s already booked its soybeans from Brazil and Argentina through December, leaving a tight window for US sales before Brazil’s next harvest hits the market early next year.

    On the ground, US farmers are making solid harvest progress, with analysts estimating about 73% of the soybean crop is in the bin, despite the ongoing government shutdown that’s halted official USDA updates. Export inspections for soybeans actually jumped this week to 1.47 million metric tons, up from just over a million last week, but that’s still well below last year’s pace—mainly because China’s just not buying from the US right now. Mexico and Pakistan have stepped up as top export destinations instead.

    Down in South America, Brazil’s soybean planting is progressing faster than last year, already at 24% complete as of last week. That’s a big deal because Brazil is now the world’s top soybean exporter, especially to China, and their crop size just keeps growing—175 million metric tons expected this season, up from 128.5 million just a few years ago.

    Now, what does all this mean for you? If you’re trading or farming, it’s a good reminder that prices can swing fast on headlines, but fundamentals—like who’s buying, where, and how big the global crop is—really drive the market. For now, US soybean prices are up, supported by trade optimism and decent domestic demand, but keep an eye on those US-China talks and Brazil’s harvest progress for the next big moves. And if you’re looking for a takeaway, it’s this: in these markets, hope can fuel rallies, but supply and demand always have the final say.

  • From Pod to Profit: Your Daily Dose of Soybean Sense
    Oct 17 2025
    https://www.instagram.com/vanessaclarkipai

    This is your Daily Soybeans Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark podcast.

    Welcome back to another episode of Daily Soybeans Price Tracker. I am Vanessa Clark, here to help you stay up to date on all things soybeans, from daily prices to the international forces shaping your favorite commodity.

    First, let’s start with what everyone wants to know: today’s soybean prices. According to the USDA’s latest grain market report, as of October sixteenth, the Chicago Board of Trade settled November soybean futures at ten dollars and ten and three quarters cents per bushel. January climbed a little higher at ten twenty-eight and a half per bushel, and March came in at ten forty-three and three quarters. For those selling cash soybeans right now, bids in Mississippi, for instance, averaged around nine eighty-six per bushel, up a nickel from yesterday. That slight boost might give some welcome relief to growers who’ve watched a choppy market over the last week.

    So what’s behind these latest numbers? Analysts from ADM Investor Services report that soybeans rose by about seven to nine cents, in part because exporters remain hopeful the U.S. could see renewed demand from China later this season. There’s cautious optimism swirling as both the U.S. and China signal they might be ready to talk trade, and fresh news of potential biodiesel demand here at home is supporting soybean oil prices. Also, with shrinking production estimates and weather concerns during harvest, markets are bracing for less supply, which has added a little upward pressure.

    But, let’s not sugarcoat it: there’s a big elephant in the room—that’s China’s buying patterns. Reports from Commodity Insights and AgWeb highlight that China, which is by far the world’s largest soybean buyer, has not booked any U.S. new crop soybeans heading into its peak demand season. Instead, China is turning to Brazil and Argentina, especially after Argentina lowered its export tax on soybeans. That led to a flurry of Argentinian sales in September, with some ten major cargoes snapped up by Chinese companies. While this has kept international soybean prices supported in Brazil and Argentina, it has made for weaker demand for U.S. beans during what would normally be a strong period.

    As it stands now, most traders expect China may hold off on big U.S. purchases until at least late December or even January, when supplies from South America start to run thin. That means the next few months could be a waiting game—one where U.S. farmers are likely to hang onto their beans, hoping for better prices if and when China comes back to the table.

    So what can you, our daily listeners, take away from today’s snapshot? If you’re marketing soybeans right now, focus on your basis opportunities and stay in touch with your local elevators. While export demand news might be bearish in the short term, there’s the chance for volatility and a possible rally if those export flows shift later in the winter. Consider locking in profitable sales when rallies happen because this market has proven it can swing quickly with every new headline about South American weather or trade negotiations.

  • Soybeans Unscrambled: Navigating the Global Market Maze
    Oct 17 2025
    https://www.instagram.com/vanessaclarkipaiThis is your Daily Soybeans Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark podcast.Hi everyone, and welcome to Daily Soybeans Price Tracker—the show where we break down the latest news and numbers in the global soybean market, delivered fresh for you every day. I’m your host, Vanessa Clark, and if you’re listening for the first time—welcome! If you’re a regular, hey, it’s so good to have you back.Let’s jump right in. Today’s soybean trading scene is shaped by a mix of global trade tensions, shifting supply patterns, and some interesting moves in the futures markets. If you’re tracking soybean prices for business, investing, or you’re just curious about how food and farm economics work, stick around—there’s plenty to unpack.Starting with the numbers: As of tonight, the November 2025 soybean futures contract is trading at about 1021 dollars per bushel on the Chicago Board of Trade. For those watching further out, the January 2026 contract is sitting at 1038.75, with March 2026 at 1054.25 and May 2026 at 1067.75. These are some of the highest levels we’ve seen in a while, even as recent sessions have shown a slight pullback—most contracts edged down a couple of bucks today. What’s driving that? Well, let’s talk about the big picture.One of the biggest stories in soybeans right now is China—the world’s largest soybean buyer. According to industry reports, China has not booked a single new-crop soybean purchase from the U.S. as of mid-October. This is unusual—typically, China would have started buying by now during the peak U.S. export window. But this year, the ongoing trade tensions have led China to look elsewhere, especially to Brazil, which has seen record-breaking soybean sales to China this year. In fact, from January through October, Brazil shipped over 100 million tonnes of soybeans, with nearly 80 percent of that going to China. That’s staggering. And why? It’s largely about price, logistics, and those trade politics. Brazilian beans are flowing, and for now, U.S. farmers are waiting.There are some signs, though, that the balance could shift once again. Traders are watching for China to possibly return to the U.S. market late this year or early next, especially as South American supplies start to dwindle. For December and January, China still has a lot of soybean demand to fill, and U.S. beans could become more competitive if Brazilian supplies tighten.Meanwhile, down in Argentina, the government’s recent export tax holiday gave a boost to soybean shipments, and China picked up more than 6 million tonnes in September alone. But now that the tax is back, that window may be closing, and the market is adjusting accordingly. All this maneuvering is keeping soybean prices active and, honestly, a little unpredictable.If you’re in India, you’re seeing a different story. Soybean prices there have eased a bit recently, with average weekly rates at Indore mills down about 2 percent to around Rs. 4,468 per quintal. That’s due in part to weaker soymeal demand, and overall, India’s soybean production is expected to fall sharply this year—down about 21 percent, mainly because of reduced planting and some tough weather. That could mean higher local prices down the road, but for now, the market is steady.So, what’s the takeaway for you, the listener? If you’re trading soybeans or using them in your business, keep an eye on China’s buying patterns, South American weather, and, of course, the shifting sands of global trade policy. These factors are moving the market every day, and sometimes even a small piece of news can ripple through prices faster than you’d expect.For those who like to stay ahead, bookmark the Daily Soybeans Price Tracker—we’ll keep you updated on all the twists and turns. And whether you’re a farmer, a trader, a food maker, or just a curious consumer, remember: understanding the basics of the soybean market helps you see the bigger story behind the food on your table and the global economy at large.That’s all for today.

  • Soybean Surge: China Eases Tension, Record Crush Boosts Demand
    Oct 16 2025
    https://www.instagram.com/vanessaclarkipaiThis is your Daily Soybeans Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark podcast.Hi, everyone, and welcome back to Daily Soybeans Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark. I’m your host, Vanessa, and I’m here to keep you up to date with the latest on the soybean markets—everything from prices and trends to global news you can actually use. So grab a cup of coffee, settle in, and let’s get into today’s update.Soybean futures kicked off the Thursday session with some strength, and by the close, November soybeans were hanging onto gains, closing up a bit over six cents at ten dollars and twelve and three-quarter cents per bushel, according to Ever.Ag’s latest spot market summary. That’s a solid showing, especially considering the market pulled back from earlier highs during the day. The most actively traded December soybean meal contract also gained, closing at two hundred seventy-six dollars and eighty cents per ton, up ninety cents, while soybean oil edged slightly higher as well.So what’s behind this supportive tone? For one, there’s a bit of easing in trade tensions between the U.S. and China. ADM Investor Services noted that a spokeswoman from China’s commerce ministry clarified today that their recent rare earth restrictions aren’t a total ban—exports will continue as long as the minerals are for civil purposes. That’s important, because when trade channels between the world’s two largest economies show signs of opening up, farmers and traders take notice. Still, let’s be real: China hasn’t bought U.S. soybeans for December or January shipments yet. Right now, they’re holding off due to high premiums for Brazilian beans, and trade insiders say China might dip into its own reserves to cover near-term needs if those premiums don’t come down. Reuters and other market sources estimate China needs another eight to nine million metric tons for December and January, which puts a spotlight on upcoming negotiations—and the possible meeting later this month between Presidents Trump and Xi.On the domestic front, the U.S. soybean crush is roaring. The National Oilseed Processors Association just reported a record September crush of nearly one hundred ninety-eight million bushels, up more than four percent from August and a whopping twelve percent from last year. That’s the fourth highest monthly crush ever, driven in part by strong demand for soybean oil in biofuels. In fact, according to the American Soybean Association, for the first time ever, U.S. biofuels are using more soybean oil than is exported or used in food. That’s a game changer, and it’s helping offset some of the drop in export demand, especially with China sitting on the sidelines for now. Plus, as new crush plants come online in the next few years, domestic demand could become even more important.Now, let’s talk weather and the crop itself. Weekend rains in the central and eastern Corn Belt will slow down the tail end of the harvest, but they’ll also help relieve some of the drought stress that’s been hanging over the region. Yields are all over the map this year, with disease pressure in some areas reducing output. The USDA currently estimates the national soybean yield at 186.7 bushels per acre, but history suggests that number could come down in the final tally. Between 1990 and now, when the USDA raised yield estimates in August only to lower them in September—which happened this year—the final yield ended up below the September forecast five out of eight times. So, there’s still some uncertainty around just how big this crop will actually be, especially with the USDA’s usual reports on hold due to the ongoing government shutdown.Globally, Brazil is expecting a record soybean crop of nearly 178 million metric tons, according to their Ministry of Agriculture, and China’s appetite remains strong, even if they’re not buying U.S. beans right now. That’s something to watch, because if Brazil’s harvest is as big as forecast, it could ease global supply concerns—but if China suddenly comes back to the U.S. market, we could see prices jump quickly.So what does this all mean for you? If you’re storing soybeans, the current price is holding above that key ten-dollar mark, and domestic demand from the crush sector is providing a solid floor. But keep an eye on export news—especially any signs that China might return to the U.S. market. If you’re making marketing decisions, now might be a good time to review your storage plans and consider locking in some coverage, especially with all the uncertainty around yields and government reports.Thanks for listening to Daily Soybeans Price Tracker.

  • Soy Steady: Cautious Markets Eye China, Brazil's Crop
    Oct 15 2025
    https://www.instagram.com/vanessaclarkipai

    This is your Daily Soybeans Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark podcast.

    Welcome back to the Daily Soybeans Price Tracker, I’m Vanessa Clark, here to walk you through the biggest news, latest numbers, and fresh insights from the world of soybeans. It is Wednesday, October 15, twenty twenty-five, and I’m so glad you’re joining me for your go-to update on soybean market trends, trading prices, and what’s influencing the markets right now.

    Let’s get straight to the big number. The most recent close for November soybeans on the Chicago Board of Trade landed at ten dollars and six and a half cents per bushel, which is actually unchanged from yesterday. That’s a bit of a pause after a stretch of volatility, and it reflects a cautious mood as traders juggle a mix of global factors according to Brownfield Ag News and market summaries from Total Farm Marketing.

    Zooming out, several moving parts are shaping prices this week. US soybean export inspections came in at just under one million metric tons for the week ending October ninth. That’s up nearly twenty-seven percent from last week, but still, about fifty percent lower compared to the same week last year. The drop in export activity is partly because China, usually the world’s top soybean importer, continues to be mostly absent from US buying tables. Instead, they’re buying more from South America as trade tensions and tariffs with the US persist.

    Tensions are further keeping traders on their toes. President Trump’s ongoing threats of increased tariffs and talk about possibly shutting down trade in used cooking oil with China have added uncertainty. While those threats don’t immediately change the fundamentals, uncertainty breathes volatility into the market and makes it harder for prices to climb.

    Looking south, Brazil’s soybean planting is progressing briskly, at about fourteen percent complete, marking the third fastest pace on record. However, there are reports that early planted fields are struggling with poor germination due to dry weather. Some Brazilian farmers are facing costly replanting decisions. If widespread, this could impact total production estimates, but analysts say the effect on yields is not certain yet.

    On a brighter note for US farmers, soybean prices are now more competitive than Brazilian beans for export, thanks in part to currency fluctuations and softer South American prices. That could spark some extra demand for American soybeans in the weeks ahead, especially if logistical issues pop up in Brazil’s shipping channels.

    Closer to home, the US soybean harvest is about sixty percent complete—slightly behind last year, but still moving at a steady clip given weather delays and scattered rains.

    So, what does all this mean for you, whether you’re following grain markets for your farming operation, watching food costs, or just want to track soybean prices out of curiosity? The key takeaway is that the market is in a holding pattern. Export demand is weaker than usual, trade uncertainty lingers, and South America’s crop can either stabilize the market if it goes well or cause new price swings if weather problems persist. If you are marketing soybeans, stay agile—pay close attention to export news and South American weather updates, as both could tip the balance quickly.

    That wraps up today’s Daily Soybeans Price Tracker. I’m Vanessa Clark and I want to thank you for listening and making us part of your day. Don’t forget to subscribe so you never miss a fresh update and join me next time for more essential news, actionable insights, and the latest trading prices from the world of soybeans.
