Soy

Soy is a major crop in both China and the U.S. Much of the volatility of this crop is due to U.S. economic influence on the crop’s production and emerging markets.

Emerging Markets

As China, India and other emerging countries increase soy imports due to population growth, demand for the agricultural product is also expected to grow.

U.S. Influence

Being the leading exporter of soybeans in the world also makes the U.S. economy and dollar a direct influencer of soybean prices and profits in the industry.

Corn

Corn plays a critical role in the exotics market because it is widely consumed as an edible and used by industries. Like other agricultural crops, its production is subject to variables like environmental conditions and influence from large economies like China’s.

Chinese Influence

As the world’s largest consumer of energy, China’s demand for cheaper biofuels can disrupt corn prices.

Enviromental Circumstances

Corn crops are vulnerable to severe heat waves and weather patterns which limit supply and increase prices.
