Soybeans were lower on profit taking and technical selling, in addition to spillover from the broader market. Beans gave back some recent gains, continuing to watch the mixed U.S. planting progress. Unknown destinations bought 229,200 tons of U.S. soybeans, with 10,200 tons for 2021/22 delivery and 219,000 tons for 2022/23. The USDA’s weekly sales numbers are out Thursday morning. Brazilian firm AgResource says 98.1% of that nation’s soybean crop is harvested, a little bit slower than a year ago, pegging the crop at 119.73 million tons.
