Apart from the USDA’s monthly report, weekly grain and oilseed trade data, and the producer deliveries, this was a fairly quiet week in the South Africa agricultural commodities markets.

The notable uptick was on soybean with the spot price up by an average 8% compared to the previous week. White and yellow maize spot prices were up by an average 6% this week.
