Oregon State College Farm Market Review
Wheat and rye markets showed little change with Pacific Coast firms and more activity but overall small trade due to limited export movement. About half of Portland trade wheat remains on farms while U S exports from July to November lag last year by about 60 million bushels. Canada exports rose by 60 million, and total export movement led last year by about 36 million bushels. A potential uptick in U S wheat demand may occur before southern hemisphere movement ramps up.
