Wheat Sliding into Thursday AM

Futures are starting off the Thursday session with 4 to 6 cent lower trade. The wheat complex saw steady to lower trade on the Wednesday session, backing off from the early morning strength. Chicago SRW futures were unchanged in most contract, with March down ¼ cent. KC HRW showed fractional to 2 ¼ cent lower trade. MPLS spring wheat was 2 ½ to 4 ½ cents lower on the session.

The FranceAgriMer expects to see French soft wheat exports to all destinations outside the EU at 4 MMT, down 3.5 MMT from last month’s number, with shipments within EU countries seen down 0.5 from a month ago to 6 MMT. With a smaller production total, stocks are expected to drop to 2.74 MMT, down 0.3 MMT from the previous estimate.
