English Wheat Yield Seen Strong and Prices Set to Fall
H Rains-Jackson reviews harvest prospects arguing a good to excellent wheat crop is likely with the 1874 season potentially surpassing 1868. He predicts a British yield of 14 to 15 million quarters, with domestic demand around 8 to 9 million quarters, and imports needed from California, Russia, and other regions to meet UK consumption. Prices for red and white wheat are noted, and a cheaper loaf is anticipated if crops perform as expected.
