How to apply it to a cargo

• CME corn 479.50 ¢/bu ($4.79/bu) (-0.72%); SRW wheat 669.50 ¢/bu ($6.70/bu); soybeans 1,273.75 ¢/bu ($12.74/bu).
• Soybean meal $365.70/st (-2.64%) is a CBOT screen, not a CFR Vietnam or China landed number.
• CF Industries $119.46 and Mosaic $19.01 are nitrogen/phosphate equities, not prilled urea or DAP granule prints.

Map the screen to a real parcel through Agricultural Commodities & Fertilizer Supply and, where freight dominates the landed bill, vessel chartering or cargo logistics.
