Kim Anderson Says Corn Remains King and Expects Wheat Prices to Dip Further
Thu, 19 Apr 2012 19:15:38 CDT
Wheat prices continued on a downward trend this week and OSU's Grain Marketing Specialist Dr. Kim Anderson says he thinks the price will go lower.
"Our wheat prices are going lower. We talked last week about that July contract broke $6.50. Our next target was weak support at $6.37 and that the price target was probably $6.00. Right now it's looking like that will probably be the case early next week if we stay below that $6.37 and I think $6.00 is where we're going to see that July contract going in the next few weeks."
