ISU economist predicts soybean prices to edge lower this year
Bremer County Extension notes soybean prices in Chicago near 2.65 dollars, with a possible 10 to 15 cent drop as demand lags supply. CCC resale price around 2.50 provides a floor for the season, while longer term gains depend on next year’s supply. Rural economics show meal output decline and oil stocks rising amid weak margins. A carryover of 35 to 45 million bushels is plausible by October 1, mostly CCC-owned. A former Algona couple in California now owns a wildcat as a pet, age one year, 25 pounds.
