American soy acreage is unchanged this year.
The USDA expects record Chinese soy imports this year.
While yields were busy COLLAPSING in Argentina during the “what should I plant this year?” season in North America (November 2022 through February 2023)…

Leaving these guys in a bad spot…(first estimate from USDA’s ag attaché in China forecasts record imports)!
It should be a fun summer!
