Abatement of Wheat Price Decline in European Situation
The weekly grain letter notes a moderate decline in wheat prices due to European political shifts and continued U.S. receipts. Dry weather and drought across western Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Texas threaten fall growth and acreage, with potential higher grain prices if rains do not come. Corn yields appear smaller than government estimates, with a likely shift to the southwest for market cash flows. Oats show good quality, while overall grain prices remain below production costs, suggesting eventual price advances.
