The international market, mainly the US market, is still digesting the vast meal that was the August USDA WASDE report. Some may have suffered indigestion from this report others may still be in the loo, given size of the meal. A market mover it was, but are these moves...

Interesting to see a 23c/bu jump in Chicago January 2026 soybean futures last night. It has lent a hand to both canola and rapeseed futures this morning. Corn appeared to have been dragged along for the ride, closing a smidge higher while wheat at Chicago and Minneapolis closed either...

Mostly technical trade in US futures as the punters position themselves ahead of next weeks USDA report. Chicago wheat futures followed both corn and soybean futures lower while Minneapolis spring wheat futures defied the Chicago market, closing a couple of cent a bushel in the green.

Delhi chickpeas were firmer again, up 8Rs/Q, but the stronger AUD made short work of such a small move. Compared to yesterdays conversion to AUD / t, Delhi chickpeas are roughly AUD$5.28 / tonne lower this morning. There’s still a large degree of speculation over both Indian chickpea production...

US, Canadian and Russian wheat values were generally lower last night. Cash prices from all three major exporters across most grades shed value. In the US and Canada the fall in cash values tracked similar moves lower in the futures markets. Spring wheat out of the Pacific Northwest slipped...
