Flour Prices Seen Rising Again in Local Market

Local provision merchants report mixed views on further flour price hikes. Some expect another ten cent rise as millers push wholesale rates, while others think current levels near peak. Most affordable forty nine pound sacks run about 4.90 with higher grades near 2.80 for the same sack. A series of weekly increases totaling about thirty cents has occurred along all grades, with retailers noting a potential extra jump if the wheat market weakens. A recent broad decline in wheat prices on exchanges could curb future consumer costs if trends continue.
