About Soybean Oil
The vegetable oil pressed from soybeans (cooking oil, biodiesel) — one half of the "soybean crush", the other being soybean meal. The US, Brazil and Argentina are the largest producers. A fast-growing share now goes into US renewable diesel (a fuel chemically closer to regular diesel than older-style biodiesel), which has pulled enough soybean oil out of the food-oil market since the early 2020s to noticeably tighten supply and lift prices, on top of its usual role as animal feed byproduct oil. Prices move with the broader vegetable oil complex and with the crush margin relative to raw soybeans.
Latest World price (2026-08): +27% vs. the 5-year average, +50% vs. the 10-year average, +32% vs. a year ago.
