Each futures contract is quoted in U.S. dollars and accounts for 450 60-net kilogram bags of soybeans, or 27 metric tons. The new soybean futures and options on futures will have the Paranaguá port, Paraná state, as their reference point and be settled according to the ESALQ/BM&FBOVESPA Soybean Price Index.
