  • Drier conditions in northern Brazil this week has provided ideal harvest weather, an analyst note said.

  • Traders remained cautious about Chinese demand for U.S. soybeans despite several million metric tons booked as part of a bilateral trade truce.

  • CBOT March soybeans SH26 were last up 9-1/4 cents to $10.55 per bushel.
