There will be nothing left and Big Z won’t negotiate an end, not least bit interested. Don’t call Saul - call Trump.

About as likely as Putin blowing up his own Nordstream pipeline.

Nova Kakhovka was started under Soviet leader Josef Stalin and finished under Nikita Khrushchev.
Your Commie hero's built the rat trap Jazz, so who's surprised?

With the loss of the dam what was most of the irrigation water being used for Corn, potatoes ? Just some wheat maybe ?

I just read that Sunflowers are one of the biggest crops in that irrigation area. Which could explain the strength in Canola relative to wheat yesterday.

I see from twitter the port is now flooding bad as expected, not a goo situation
Even worse for all the citizens that have endured this stupid war and now this .
Economic fall out in that region will be huge

That blown up dam is almost twice the size as lake Diefenbaker, it holds almost 15 million acre feet of water.

Doesn’t seem like any news really affects the markets anymore.
Just go up and down for basically no reasons.

North american drought becoming more evident
News story in Kansas wheat harvest will be smallest in 60 years
https://www.kwch.com/2023/06/05/kansas-wheat-harvest-looks-be-historically-small/
Alberta moisture update May 29 notes little reserve moisture in the soil, with large areas of the province having 1-in-25 and 1-in-50 year deficits
Why does wheat keep floating down? Maybe too early in the season for the weather to hit the market?

Keeping food prices from rising more, keeping inflation at bay, farmers can always take less, right.
Never forget the U.N. dude, instructing countries to spread out the grain purchases, and not to bid against each other, just to obtain a year ahead supply all at once. "Buy small amounts and spread out the purchases to avoid grain prices from rising too much, when there are world shortages", he said

There is a point of no return where moisture won't help a crop.

Yup the vast majority of us actual farmers know and unfortunately have been there . And for most it’s staring them in the face already

Today on the CBOT ;
Chicago Jly Wheat traded 90636 contracts
Minnie Jly Spring Wheat traded 3206
Soybean Jly traded 135990
Canola Jly traded 17272
The funds are trying to protect their shorts .
They have had a good go if your betting on the down trend.
I know very little about trading futures but if you thought you could influence the market with big fund dollars is that more likely possible in the smaller volume markets?
What about the short squeeze?
Is that a bigger risk?

I’m not a conspiracy nut but these guys are working together to shit on our time to make some money. Weber would know but they don’t talk much about the 90 day or 45 day wheat supplies much for fear of invoking chaos in people that actually pay attention to things that matter.
No different than the fire situation going on right now. They never seize an opportunity to stoke the fires of their agenda or quell the potential chaos that could occur if grain prices get out of hand.
