@shanaka86 No. Because: (a) Farmers plan and order fertilizer two seasons in advance of planting, especially for large-scale crop production. (b) September/October is when farmers ordered for this spring. (c) Fertilizer is already on hand for this year's spring planting.


Brazil Soybean Export Basis Update 1 picture = 1000 words


No, China doesn't strictly "need" US soybeans. Its ~100 MMT annual import demand is met mostly by Brazil (87 MMT in 2025 amid record 180 MMT production). US share dropped to 7 MMT due to 2025 tariffs/trade tensions. They buy US beans for diversification (weather/logistics risks from Brazil), quality edges (often better oil/protein specs, lower moisture), and seasonal timing. Trade deals target 25 MMT in 2026, but with Brazilian prices cheaper and recent tariff shifts, actual volume may fall short unless economics align. US exports can shift to other markets, but China remains key buyer overall.
