Soybean meal accompanied beans in gains, with an improvement of 2.2% to US$509.92 a ton. Meanwhile, oil lost 0.5% to settle at US$1,327.5 per ton.

For its part, corn rose 1.1% and stood at US$293 a ton, also as a consequence of a deterioration in the state of the crops and due to opportunity purchases. According to the USDA, the cereal in good to excellent conditions in the northern country went from 67% stipulated last week to 64% today.

Finally, wheat fell again on this day, with a fall of 0.2% and ended at US$291.10 per ton.

The drop not only corresponded to a strong advance in threshing in the Northern Hemisphere, but also to a 7-point improvement in crop conditions from good to excellent in the United States, going from 59% to 66% in one week, according to the USDA.
