Soyabean futures on the Chicago Board of Trade fell to a three-week low on Wednesday, pressed by technical selling and expectations of a large South American soya harvest, traders said. The CBOT March soyabean contract settled down 3-1/2 cents at $10.22-3/4 per bushel after dipping to $10.22-1/4, its lowest since February 1.

CBOT March soyameal settled lower for a fourth straight session, following soyabeans. CBOT March soyaoil ended higher, snapping an eight-session decline, on oil/meal spreading and spillover from strength from higher Malaysian palm oil futures.
