What is the CBOT soybeans futures contract?

Chicago soybeans

A long means…

Exposure to a rise in deliverable CBOT soybean grain — the seed, not meal, not oil.

What is this?

Soybean grain is the seed that gets crushed: a 60-pound bushel is conventionally 44 pounds of protein meal and 11 pounds of oil. The CBOT future delivers US No. 2 Yellow soybeans — not meal, not oil, and not Brazilian beans. Domestic crush now takes more than half the US crop; the rest is exported, China first. Brazil is the world’s largest producer, but this contract remains deliverable US soybeans.

Elevators and exporters hedge the grain; crushers hedge buying the seed against selling meal and oil.

Pitfalls

  • Seed ≠ meal ≠ oil: three CFTC codes.
  • Do not add ZS+ZM+ZL.
  • Not canola (`canola`).
