NCDEX Jul Soybean fell 1.5% on Monday on profit booking as there are chances of higher planting this season but monsoon rains will be very crucial. As per farm ministry, acreage under soybean was 37,000 ha so far, lower than 75,000 ha from a year ago. As per latest SOPA press release, soybean arrivals for the Oct-May period pegged at 84.75 lt, up by 19.4% on year. Until April, country crushed about 67.8 lt of soybean compared to 60.5 lt last year.

USDA in its monthly report forecast output at 109 lt in 2019/20, down 5% compared to last year. Lower crude soybean oil stocks at port may support soybean but lowering of tariff on edible oils and lower soyoil in international market pressurize soybean. CBOT Soybean surged to two-month high on forecasts for wet conditions in the U.S. Midwest which will further slow planting progress.

Outlook

Soybean futures expected to trade sideways due to reports of higher acreage this season. Moreover, increase edible oil imports will put extra pressure on Oilseeds as the sowing season approaching.
