International wheat cash and futures values all trended lower yesterday. Risk off ?, who knows. The US weekly crop condition report wasn’t exactly bearish wheat that’s for sure. Falling quality ratings in both US spring and winter wheat, delays to harvest, all pointed to a stronger open but it...

Trump in true Trump form has stated that US ground support is not likely to occur in Iran, but also states that as long as Israel is winning there’s little chance they’ll stop or he will ask them to stop. Apparently Iran wants to talk but will not unless...

The US markets were closed overnight. This leaves Paris milling wheat and London feed wheat futures as the next best futures markets to look at. Paris milling wheat saw a €1.00 gain nearby while the Dec slot closed €0.75 / tonne higher. London feed wheat futures were unchanged in...

US wheat futures slipped away on Monday night, eroding more than half of last weeks gains in just one session. Lower corn and soybean futures wont help. We also have a stronger AUD against the US dollar compounding the move when converting it all to AUD / tonne this...
