Private
exporters reported the following sales activity:

-392,000
metric tons of soybeans for delivery to China during the 2022/2023 marketing year

-198,000
metric tons of soybeans for delivery to unknown destinations during the 2022/2023 marketing year

-230,000
metric tons of soybean cake and meal for delivery to the Philippines during the 2022/2023 marketing year

 

The
USD is higher, up about 16 points. WTI crude oil is lower by $1.65 and US equities higher.
Corn futures are lower from a sharply higher USD, lower WTI crude oil and ongoing global recession concerns. The soybean complex is mixed with soybeans and meal higher and soybean oil lower. Export sales, offshore values and the lower
trade in WTI crude is promoting meal/oil spreading. US wheat futures are lower led by the KC market. Uncertainty over the Black Sea safe passage agreement set to expire November should limit losses.

 

The
US weather group CPC projected a 75% chance of La Nina during the northern hemisphere winter (Dec-Feb) season before a 54% chance of turning neutral during the Feb-Apr period.

 

There
were no major changes to the US weather forecast. Brazil’s outlook is unchanged, and Argentina turned slightly unfavorable. Argentina will see some rain across eastern Cordoba, central Santa Fe, and Entre Rios through Saturday before turning drier through
Tuesday. Brazil will continue to see favorable rains bias western Mato Grosso, southwest MGDS, south Sao Paulo, Parana, Santa Catarina, north RGDS. The US southwestern Great Plains will see additional rain, bias southern OK and TX. The Midwest will be mostly
dry over the next week.

WORLD
WEATHER HIGHLIGHTS FOR OCTOBER 14, 2022

  • U.S.
    hard red winter wheat areas are unlikely to get much meaningful rain late this weekend or early next week, although some showers will occur in a minor portion of the production region
    • Any
      moisture will be welcome, but it will not likely be enough to last very long and more rain will still be needed to induce a well-established wheat crop
  • Hard
    freezes in the U.S. Midwest next week will end the growing season, but the impact on crops is not likely to be very great
    • Frost
      and light freezes are also possible in the northern Delta
  • U.S.
    precipitation biases will continue unchanged for another week keeping the western Midwest, northern Plains and far western states dry while rain and snow impact the Great Lakes region
  • Restricted
    rainfall is expected in the Delta and a part of the interior southeastern states for the next week to ten days
  • Canada’s
    Prairies will see no relief from drought through the next ten days
  • France
    and Germany as well as some neighboring areas will get moisture in the coming week to ten days while other areas in Europe are dry biased
  • Much
    of the western CIS soil moisture and crop conditions will remain favorably rated over the next ten days, despite a few areas needing a little moisture while many others would benefit from greater drying
  • Eastern
    China’s dry biased weather will continue for the next ten days
    • Drought
      in the southeastern part of the nation remains a concern for winter crops
  • India’s
    monsoon is withdrawing with central parts of the nation expected to be much drier in the coming week to ten days
  • Eastern
    Australia will continue to see waves of rain and cooler than usual weather negatively impacting some crops
  • Argentina
    may get some showers infrequently over the next ten days, but there should be a little more rain during this period relative to that of the past ten days
  • Little
    change in Brazil weather is expected in this first week of the outlook favoring rain in center south and center west areas, but leaving Goias and eastern Mato Grosso dry
    • The
      second week of the outlook should improve rain potentials for some of these drier areas
  • Tropical
    Storm Karl will bring heavy rain into Tabasco and Chiapas, Mexico this weekend, although the impact on agriculture will be low
  • Tropical
    Depression 22W will impact central Vietnam this weekend with some heavy rainfall, but the impact on crops and property should be low
