  • Wheat futures (May contracts) traded just above $6.0 per bushel as cold weather threatened crops in the Black Sea and US Plains region, raising concerns about tightening supplies.<\/li>\n
  • Additionally, there was some relief that President Donald Trump had not yet announced tariffs on agricultural trade.<\/li>\n
  • In February, the USDA unexpectedly cut domestic ending stocks for 2024\/25 by 4 million bushels to 794 million, while global stocks fell by 1.3 million tons to 257.6 million, primarily due to downward revisions for China.<\/li>\n
  • On the demand side, the USDA’s latest report showed that wheat export sales surged 45% from the prior four-week average to 569,600 tons in the week ending February 6.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n

    • May corn futures retreated from a 1-year high, trading close to $5.05 per bushel, as tightening global supply and strong demand offset trade-related uncertainty.<\/li>\n
    • Argentina’s drought-driven yield cuts and Brazil’s delayed planting are expected to lower global ending stocks by 3 million tons.<\/li>\n
    • US ethanol production continues to exceed expectations, reinforcing domestic demand for corn feedstocks, while robust US exports, driven by strong foreign buying, have added further support.<\/li>\n
    • However, downside risks remain, including the potential for increased Argentinian exports and uncertainty over President Trump’s tariff policies, which could disrupt global trade flows.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n

      • May soybean futures hovered around $10.5 per bushel, nearing the one-month low of $10.3, amid a stronger USD and expectations of higher supply and decline in demand.<\/li>\n
      • In Brazil, harvest progress continued, with 23% of the country’s massive soybean crop collected as of last week.<\/li>\n
      • On the demand side, the latest USDA weekly report revealed a sharp 74% drop in soybean sales from the previous four-week average, totaling just 185k tons for the week ending February 6, well below the projected range of 300k-800k tons.<\/li>\n
      • Investors now focus on President Trump’s announcement of reciprocal tariffs, as well as ongoing negotiations toward a potential resolution of the war in Ukraine.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
