USDA: December Soybean Crush Climbs on Month

Crude soybean oil produced in December 2023 was 2.38 billion pounds, up two percent on the month and eight percent from December 2022. Refined U.S. soybean oil production totaled 1.71 billion pounds in December 2023, increasing one percent on the month and eight percent on the yearly period, the report said.
