Soybean prices to trade lower: Angel Commodities

A bushel of soybeans are shown on display in the Monsanto research facility in Creve Coeur, Missouri, July 28, 2014. Monsanto engineers designed a chipper to shave a tiny tissue sample off a seed to analyze the seed's genetics. If the sample is positive for desirable genetic traits, the seed is still viable so a breeder can plant it in a field test and use it in the breeding process to create more seeds of its kind.

Mustard seed futures expected to trade sideways due to steady demand from the industrial buyers as supplies sufficient in the physical market.
