Markets
Nearby NuSun and high oleic prices at the crush plants were down 25 cents to unchanged last week. Overall, NuSun and high oleic prices continue to trade 75 to 90 cents per cwt. lower than the 60-day moving average at the ND crush plants. 2023 new crop was unchanged to up 50 cents. USDA released its latest supply and demand reports last week. USDA put soybean production at 4.346 billion bushels, above the trade’s expectation of 4.324 billion bushels and the October estimate of 4.313 billion bushels. In addition, U.S. ending soybean stocks were raised to 220 million bushels, above the trade’s expectation of 215 million bushels and USDA’s October estimate of 200 million bushels. The increase in yield and stocks for soybeans were a surprise as traders expected little to no change. Rain and snow events slowed harvest in the past week. Despite the weather sunflower producers did make good harvest progress. Harvest progress advanced 9% to 92% complete for the week ending November 13. In the past week, producers harvested an additional 139,530 acres pushing 2022 harvested acres to about 1,415,395 acres. Last year at this same time about 81% of acres were harvested. Harvest progress remains 21% ahead of the five-year average. All eyes are now on global uncertainty with the Black Sea grain corridor agreement expiring on November 19, and upcoming crop weather conditions in South America as their crop is nearly finished being planted.
