Additional Wheat Acres May or May Not Impact Prices, Anderson Says
Thu, 20 Sep 2012 19:08:32 CDT
More wheat acres are expected to be planted in 2012 and Lyndall Stout talks to Kim Anderson about possible impacts to wheat prices in a preview to this week's SUNUP show.
"The first thing we've got to think about is if it doesn't rain, there probably won't be a price implication. The hard red winter wheat planted acres they'll probably be about the same as they were last year. Soft red winter wheat acres will be slightly higher. And a lot of that will go into the feed wheat with the tight corn stocks. And the spring wheat acres which were down a little bit this last year will probably be higher. That'll move into the milling and baking area.
"I don't think it's going to have any price impact until we get into the February-March time period. Right now we're going to have to deal with the U.S. and world stocks as they are."
