How to apply it to a cargo

• CME corn 508.00 ¢/bu ($5.08/bu) (+2.06%); SRW wheat 703.25 ¢/bu ($7.03/bu); soybeans 1,306.25 ¢/bu ($13.06/bu).
• Soybean meal $356.80/st (+3.51%) is a CBOT screen, not a CFR Vietnam or China landed number.
• CF Industries $116.02 and Mosaic $20.94 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.
