Soybean Crush

The crush spread is a dollar value quoted as the difference between the combined sales values of soybean meal and soybean oil and the cost of the raw soybeans. This value is traded in the cash and futures markets based on expectations of future price movement of soybeans versus the products. This panel can be added to a workspace by clicking on More in the main toolbar and then selecting Soybean Crush in the Calcs section.
