Ashburton Grain Market Report Week Ended June 1 1912

The Ashburton market shows little farmer selling pressure as merchants stay cautious. Good milling wheat brings 36 Od to 86 7d per bushel on country trucks, oats offer little demand with nominal values around 2s 1d to 3s 1d for certain grades, and chaff prospects worsen as Australia’s rains ease internal demand. Prime chaff at about 60s per ton remains the top quote with large supplies of inferior stock hard to place.
