Price Advance Expected in Wheat Markets

The rapid rise in wheat prices over the past days is linked to bakeries and dealers holding little stock and anticipating shortages in coming months. Prices have climbed ten to twelve cents per bushel, with traders bracing for volatility as demand may exceed supply. Department of Agriculture data show roughly 43 million bushels in visible supply, about 70 million less than normal, signaling a potential 27 million bushel gap if demand remains steady. Also noted is an event: Deacon Dubba In the Town Jail set for Thursday evening, 20th mate.
