West Wheat Surplus Shrinks as Western Harvest Rains

The massive 1940-41 wheat surplus, boosted by wartime exports and bumper crops, is expected to shrink with reduced prairie yields and higher feeding use for livestock. Grain experts anticipate lower market availability and possible shifts to feeding, with potential shipments to the Soviet Union via Valdivostok if war-friendly conditions persist.
