  • Soybeans Maintain Gains as USDA Updates Demand Forecasts in WASDE Report
    April 10, 2026, 8:32 AM EDT. Soybeans held onto modest gains Thursday midday, with the national average cash price rising 3.25 cents to $10.97. The USDA's monthly WASDE report showed a 35 million bushel increase in crush demand, offset by a similar export reduction, leaving ending stocks unchanged at 350 million bushels. South American output estimates for Argentina and Brazil remained steady. Export sales reported 295,403 metric tons of old crop soybeans, exceeding last year's weekly pace by over 70%, though new crop sales were zero. Soymeal futures increased by $2.30 to $3.50, while soy oil futures slipped 30 to 35 points. The report reflects a cautious market response to limited supply-demand revisions and steady international production forecasts.
