In one year, the wholesale price of orange juice has risen by almost 77 per cent. Since February 2020, when the COVID pandemic struck, it has increased fivefold, according to AFP.

The futures contract for frozen concentrate...

Everywhere you go in Argentina or Uruguay, you’ll see people engaging in an old and much-loved ritual: sipping a hot, slightly bitter infusion of caffeinated leaves from a dried gourd through a filtered metal straw, before passing the gourd to their friends to share. It’s yerba mate, South America’s Indigenous tea with a long and storied history. “Yerba mate” is the common name for Ilex paraguariensis, a shrub native to South America whose dried and cured leaves are brewed in hot water to produce...

Wet forecasts for key U.S. growing areas are delaying planting activities, leading to early discussions about some producers possibly switching to soybeans from corn, although no firm decisions have been made yet. Unknown destinations purchased 180,000 tons of U.S. soybeans, with 120,000 tons for the 2023/24 season and 60,000 tons for 2024/25. If these buyers include China, it could indicate potential retaliation for new U.S. tariffs, or a hedge a...
