USDA reduced its prediction for soybean ending stocks by 15 million bushels from last month, which was somewhat higher than the reduction in trading expectations of 5 million bushels. USDA reduced anticipated crush by 10 million bu (to 2.220 billion bu), however, that was more than offset by an increase in exports of 25 million bu (to 2.015 billion bu.). The USDA kept its prediction for the national average on-farm cash price for 2022–2023 at $14.30.
