Soybeans Gain Ahead of Expected Ag Day Announcements -- Market Talk

Dow Jones03-25 23:25

1124 ET - Soybean futures are up 0.6% in morning trade, as the market looks to Friday's National Agriculture Day events at the White House. The event is expected to include the announcement of new rules for renewable fuels producers in the U.S. -- potentially increasing the demand for soybean oil and the underlying row crop. This has been supportive for CBOT futures, and appears to be keeping soybeans in positive territory even as it's no longer fresh news. "I would suspect by now the entire world is widely expecting an announcement about biofuel mandate targets on Friday," says Brian Pullam of Linn & Associates. Pullam notes that war-related headlines and next week's Prospective Planting report are the other main drivers for grains. Corn rises 0.1% and wheat slides 0.2%. (kirk.maltais@wsj.com)
