How it reaches your house.
Starting from Soybean Meal (Animal Feed Protein), we walked the supply graph hop by hop to the goods you buy and the companies you own. Each step is the engine’s reasoning, scored for confidence and cited where a source backs it.
First impact
Soybeans →Prices riseSoybeans are a critical input to cooking oils, so tariff-driven soybean price spikes should transmit quickly into higher cooking-oil costs.
94% confidenceSoybean Meal (Swine Feed — Primary Protein) →Prices riseSoybean meal is a critical, high-dependency protein input for swine feed, so tariff-driven meal inflation passes through to higher pork production costs and prices.
91% confidenceSoybean Meal (Animal Feed Protein) →Prices riseSoybean meal is a critical, high-dependency input for animal feed, so tighter meal availability or higher meal prices pass through mainly as higher feed costs.
Hop 2
Bunge Global SA →Prices riseU.S. soybean tariffs directly lift Bunge's soybean procurement costs and can tighten availability, and this edge shows a meaningful 20% supply share with a 3-month replacement lead time.
86% confidenceCargill, Incorporated →Prices riseSoybean tariffs directly raise upstream bean costs, which can transmit into higher soybean meal prices for feed use.
85% confidenceFeedlot Finishing Diet (Corn + Soybean Meal) →Prices riseTariffs lifting soybean costs raise the cost of the feedlot finishing diet, and this critical input feeds directly into beef and ground beef production, pushing their prices up.
Hop 3
Poultry & Dairy Feed (Corn, Soybean Meal) →Prices riseFeed is a critical, high-dependency input to dairy and egg production, so higher soybean/feed costs pass through strongly.
93% confidencePoultry & Dairy Feed (Corn, Soybean Meal) →Prices riseAs a direct animal-nutrition business with material share in this feed market, higher corn/soymeal costs raise its input costs.
82% confidencePalm fresh fruit bunches (FFB) →Prices risePalm fresh fruit bunches are a critical input to cooking oils, so a tariff-driven increase in FFB costs passes through strongly to cooking-oil prices.
Hop 4
Indonesia →supply upRBD Palm Oil (Confectionery & Bakery Fat)
Indonesia supplies 59.6% of this input, and soybean tariffs can shift demand toward palm-based substitutes, increasing availability from Indonesia.
76% confidenceWilmar International Limited →Prices riseVegetable Oil Blend (Palm Olein, Soy, Coconut, Sunflower)
Wilmar's blended oil input explicitly contains soy, so the soybean tariff pushes that blend's input cost higher despite its substitutability.
66% confidenceWilmar International Limited →Prices rise
