·         Frequent showers will occur in the Delta this week.

·         The Midwest will also be active starting later this week which should slow harvesting before a couple more days of net drying occurs outside the Ohio River Valley region.

·         HRW wheat areas will see a mixture of sunshine and rain.

·         Improving weather across Europe and the CIS is bearish for wheat.

·         SA weather looks good.

·         Canada is seeing too much precipitation in form of snow and rain, and temperatures will remain cool.

9/12/18

·        December corn may now trade in a $3.35-$3.80 range.

·        March corn in a $3.15-$4.15 range.

 

Soybean complex.

·         Soybeans ended higher on fund short covering and strong export demand as indicated in the USDA export sales report. Soybean meal was also strong during the session but sold off before the close. Soybean oil recovered after getting pressure early to close 35-38 points higher.

·         A Chinese representative from the Commerce Ministry said they are open to negotiations with the US to resolve trade issues but added China will not cave to extreme US pressure.

·         Funds bought an estimated 4,000 soybean contracts, bought 3,000 soybean meal and bought 5,000 soybean oil.

·         US harvesting delays are in the spotlight but we think US harvest progress could advance a healthy 11 points to 25 percent, 6 points above average.

·         USDA US export sales were good for meal, corn, wheat, soybeans and slow for soybean oil.

·         US 2018-19 soybean meal sales were 511,900 tons. Traders started rolling positions from old to new-crop.

·         Soybean export sales of 870,700 tons were within expectations and included 96,100 tons for Argentina.

·         Soybean oil export sales were poor at 2,700 tons and there were 8,000 tons booked for 2018-19.

·         The US and Japan agreed to bilateral trade talks.

·         India’s SOPA is optimistic India could increase soybean meal exports to 2.5-3.0 million tons in 2018-19, up from 1.75 million tons in 2017-18. Soybean production is up and India has been campaigning to open exports of oilmeal to China. Recently 300,000 tons of soybean meal has been contracted for Japan, Europe, and Vietnam at around $370/ton.

·         Univia estimates France’s rapeseed area will decline 150,000-200,000 hectares to 1.5 million hectares this year, in part to drought.

  • IGC: world soybeans +4MMT to 370MMT

·         Next week China is on a week-long holiday.

·         China soybean meal futures hit a 5-month high. It was up 0.1% or 2 yuan/ton to 3298, and leading CBOT meal $1.60 lower.

 

The average domestic price of cash China soybean meal is near its highest level since November 2014

 

·         An Indonesia government official sees 2019 Indonesia biodiesel production up to 7 million tons from 5 million tons. They are asking India to lower its import tariff on the product. They see Indonesia palm production at 40 million tons.

·         Indonesia will leave its palm export tax unchanged at zero percent (will be left there as long as palm prices remain below $750/ton).

·         Several bearish comments emerged out of a conference in Asia. One analyst thinks the price of crude palm oil when imported into Rotterdam will decline to $590/ton and soybean oil at $700/ton. Another thinks an ongoing trade war will reduce the price of soybeans below $8.00/bu.

 

Export Developments

  • China sold 200 tons of imported 2011 soybean oil out of reserves at 5,000 yuan per ton ($727.08/ton), 0.7 percent of the total offered.
  • China sold about 2.5MMT of soybean out of reserves this season.
  • China will offer 100,000 tons of soybeans out of reserves on October 10.
  • Results awaited: Iran seeks 30,000 tons of sunflower oil on September 24.

·         Soybean Cake and Meal:    Net sales of 147,300 MT for 2017/2018 were up noticeably from the previous week and from the prior 4-week average.   Increases were reported for Vietnam (42,900 MT, including decreases of 200 MT), Japan (24,400 MT, including 2,900 MT switched from unknown destinations), the Philippines (20,200 MT), Canada (17,800 MT), and Mexico (11,200 MT, including decreases of 1,200 MT).  Reductions were reported for Thailand (3,000 MT), Costa Rica (700 MT), and Jamaica (700 MT).  For 2018/2019, net sales of 511,900 MT were reported for unknown destinations (179,400 MT), Guatemala (77,000 MT), the Dominican Republic (54,000 MT), and Indonesia (54,000 MT).  Exports of 277,800 MT were up 24 percent from the previous week and 31 percent from the prior 4-week average.  The primary destinations were the Philippines (114,900 MT), Mexico (36,100 MT), Colombia (27,000 MT), Canada (26,100 MT), and the Dominican Republic (23,500 MT).

·         Soybean Oil:    Net sales of 2,700 MT for 2017/2018 were down 72 percent from the previous week and 69 percent from the prior 4-week average.  Increases were reported for Mexico (1,000 MT), El Salvador (700 MT), Colombia (500 MT), and Canada (300 MT).   For 2018/2019, net sales of 8,000 MT were reported for South Korea (4,500 MT), the Dominican Republic (2,500 MT), and Colombia (1,000 MT).  Exports of 19,200 MT were up 91 percent from the previous week and 16 percent from the prior 4-week average.  The primary destinations were the Dominican Republic (9,500 MT), Guatemala (4,500 MT), Jamaica (3,000 MT), and Mexico (1,800 MT). 

 

We think palm prices are nearing a bottom. Rising palm production and India’s import tariff on selected vegetable oils are bearish, but higher SBO and Brent Crude may eventually stop the medium-term erosion of palm prices.
