      Now you guys have learned something about commodity markets. Has nothing to do with supply and demand. I mean bombs flying in the Russia Ukraine black sea regions, weather problems in SA, ME powder keg, India shortages, China hoarding, ships attacked in red sea and 75m new mouths to feed this year, and barely a blip in price.

        Well the vast majority of us actually do know , but sooner or later the supply demand can’t hide
        This past 4 months has been another great grain robbery with every poor excuse on the planet to keep wheat prices down with all that you pointed out going on .

          Farmers tried through resolutions at farm group AGMs , it has been forgotten. The directors got caught up being short on contracts, and that became more important.

            I haven't followed why it's been forgotten over the years. It all seems paralyzed. And a deaf government for nearly a decade.
            As for being short on contracts. There is insurance for that on wheat and canola. Contract revision shouldn't even be an issue.
            Small player force majeure issues and late payments are.

              Sold my wheat. Now it will skyrocket a few $/bushel…your welcome!

              If only canola would catch some wind in its sails. Going backwards.

                Did the buyer come closer to your number, or did you have to compromise to their number?

                  They picked up the hard red at $9.50 for 1-13.5. I compromised on the cps at $8.68, but am now hearing G3 was offering $9.00 (my target) at the high before wheat pulled back a bit.

                    Wheat markets up big this morning, are the hedge funds trying to unwind their short positions?

                      They have been for a while but have been accelerating.
