The latest projection released by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) promises a plentiful supply of soybeans through 2018 and projections show crops breaking records1.In its September 12 report, the USDA increased the soybean yield by 0.5 bushels per acre while keeping harvested acreage unchanged. This results in a projection of the soybean crop at 4,431 million bushels, almost 3 percent greater than last year’s previous record1. In its August World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE) report, the USDA projected soybean prices to trade in a range with a midpoint of $9.20 per bushel, about the same as the previous two years2.
