Kim Anderson Sees Little Upside to Wheat Market in the Short Term- PLUS This Weekend's SUNUP Lineup
Thu, 14 Feb 2019 16:19:48 CST
Oklahoma State University Extension Grain Market Economist Dr. Kim Anderson says that no price rally is in the cards at this moment- and it may well be April, May or even harvest time before the wheat market will have a chance to rally higher.
The global markets are about done buying Black Sea wheat- but shipments are still underway from the earlier buying and that is keeping demand for hard red winter wheat tepid. Dr. Anderson says it will take some export demand to pick up to have much chance of higher wheat prices. He adds that the domestic market will respond to better than average quality- better than average test weight and protein will be key to any premiums that farmers can hope to earn.
Kim's comments will be a part of this weekend's SUNUP show, as produced by Oklahoma State University's Ag Communications Department and to be seen on OETA both Saturday and Sunday. you can wait and catch Kim's comments then- or check them out now by clicking on the LISTEN BAR below.
