“Soybean futures are lower this morning and have given back all of yesterday’s gains as scattered showers fall in Brazil with a friendlier long-term forecast,” said the Grain Market Insider newsletter by Stewart-Peterson Inc. this morning prior to the 8:30 a.m. CST open. “Yesterday’s rally can be attributed to Argentina’s proposal to increase export taxes on soybean meal and oil to 33% from 31%. Trade had initially expected the Argentine government to enact policy that was more friendly to producers.”
