Wheat futures are trading higher this morning, up 3 to 5 cents in the DEC 2024 futures. Favorable harvest results in the US and improving weather forecast in South America are pressuring corn and beans early on. Wheat futures followed at the start but have since climbed into the green. Showers are forecast for 25-30% of Brazil's major corn and soybean areas. As of Sunday, 9.1% of the Brazilian soybean planting is complete. Nice rains are expected for the western portion of the southern plains with heavy amounts expected in eastern Colorado and the panhandle region. Much of Kansas is expected to get some rain with the heavier amounts focused on the western third of the state. Wheat futures found some support yesterday as there are parts outside the US that are dry including Russia and Australia.

 

Discussions on Russia's minimum tariffs have the trade encouraged as it could mean higher prices for the cheapest wheat if they stick to it. Their Exporter's Union said the indicative export price for wheat with 12.5% protein content on a FOB basis from the Black Sea port of Novorosslysk was $240/MT for October, $245/MT for Nov and $250/MT for December. There is increasing discussion on how US trade with China will look if Trump wins the presidency. He tends to use a combination of the stick and candy which seemed to work in the long term but there could be some chaos in the near term.

 

Cash Futures Prices: Chicago DEC is up 3 at 588 KC DEC is up 4 at 593 and MPLS DEC is up 5 at 626. US Dollar is trading 0.22 higher at 103.81.
