Quiet grain market in Christchurch amid scarce wheat offers

Christchurch reports a very quiet grain market with little wheat or oats offered. Australian oats resold or orders cancelled, likely to free shipping space for wheat. Queensland wheat quality appears low and surplus exports uncertain, while potato trade is dull due to weak orders and waterlogged land. chaff supply small and trade limited.

Wheat and oats market notes and a patriotism tale

The report outlines wheat demand outpacing supply with some farmers holding ample stacks while others struggle. Oats remain firm with Australian imports affecting southern prices. Prime chaff values are listed. A provincial reader advocates destroying enemy goods, recounting a Haake piano smashed to pieces as a nationalist act, suggesting the owner could have sold it to fund patriotic ends.
