Soybean futures surged to approximately $10.60 per bushel, marking the highest level since late June. This upswing is primarily attributed to renewed optimism surrounding China's soybean purchases, which has positively influenced market sentiment. Industry observers are attentively anticipating a significant meeting this week in South Korea between U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping. Following recent trade discussions between China and the U.S., the Chinese delegation reported that both nations have achieved a fundamental consensus on crucial economic and trade issues, particularly in the realm of agricultural commerce. U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Besent highlighted that, according to the impending agreement, China is expected to acquire a substantial quantity of soybeans. On the supply front, Brazil is forecasted to expand its soybean acreage by 3.5%, reaching a total of 121 million acres. Meanwhile, Argentina's soybean processing for September rose to 4.13 million tonnes, representing the highest output in 11 months.
