Soybean Crush Remains Strong

Soybean exports have struggled in the past year, but USDA Agricultural Economist Bryn Swearingen says domestic demand is strong. Crush has expanded to nearly 60 percent of production in 2026/2027, as forecasted to be crush for meal and oil rather than exported and crushed elsewhere in the world,” said Swearingen. “We’re expecting to see further crush facilities currently under construction and coming online, these investments aim to meet the growing demand.”
