Fundamental view

A government report due tomorrow may show global soybeans inventories declined from last month’s estimate.

Global soybeans reserves may total 70.05 million metric tons for the 2013-14 crop year, down from the previous USDA estimate of 70.64 million, according to the median of as many as 19 analyst estimates, participated in a Bloomberg survey.

The government agency reported on March 1st, that inventories in the worlds largest producer, the US, were at the weakest level for this time of the year since 2004.

US reserves fell to 992.3 million bushels, the lowest level in a decade, while stockpiles stored in farm bins fell almost 16% from a year ago to the smallest percentage of total supplies since 1977, data by the US Department of Agriculture showed.
