Oilseeds Soymeal Inventory Holds Steady The feed market found new footing in the past week as demand from hog producers began picking up steam. Soymeal sales were higher as a result, and crushers have responded by boosting utilization rates back to above the 50 percent threshold. Thus, China’s nationwide estimated soymeal inventory totaled 1.156 MMT as of 25 May 2018, up 4,800 MT (0.4 percent) from the previous week but down 146,800 MT (-11.3 percent) versus the same week in 2017. The week-on-week increase was essentially due to growing inventories in the East region and Guangxi, which rose 29,300 MT to 622,300 MT and 13,000 MT (+14.94 percent) to 100,000 MT, respectively, last week.
