- Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. 2. Core View of the Report - In March, soybean meal fluctuated and declined. The USDA report on US and South American soybean production had a neutral impact. South American soybean harvest accelerated and exports increased, while US soybean exports were weak. However, the market expected a significant reduction in the intended planting area of new - season US soybeans, which supported the rebound of the US soybean futures after a decline. In China, due to the shortage of soybeans in oil mills and seasonal shutdown for maintenance, the operating rate of oil mills decreased continuously in March. The downstream trading and pick - up were average. With the expectation of a large increase in imported soybeans in April, the high - priced soybean meal spot prices dropped, dragging down the Dalian soybean meal futures. - It is recommended to conduct reverse arbitrage operations on Dalian soybean meal under the intertwined long and short factors at home and abroad [6]. 3.
