Abstract: Soybean is the raw material of soybean oil. Does the change of soybean futures prices affect the change of soybean oil futures prices or vise versa? In this paper, a case study is given to analyze the construction of VAR model with the closing price of yellow bean No.1 and soybean oil in Dalian Commodity Exchange from Jan. 9th, 2006 to Aug. 4th, 2016. Through Granger causality test, variance decomposition analysis and impulse response functions, it indicates that the effects of the change of soybean oil futures prices on the change of soybean futures price are not obvious, while the change of soybean futures prices has obvious influences and high contribution on the change of soybean oil futures prices.

Key words: soybean futures prices, soybean oil futures prices, VAR
