Most Ukrainian processors are building up 3-5 months of wheat stocks, taking advantage of the favorable price decline.
The wheat harvest in Ukraine is almost complete, and the market is entering a phase of balancing supply and demand, Spike Brokers reports.
Food wheat remains under pressure due to increased global supply from major producers in the northern hemisphere. At the same time, feed wheat received support due to lower liquidity of feed grains and a delay in the start of the corn harvest campaign, brokers note.
“Domestic processing continues to actively purchase food wheat within its annual demand – up to 7 million tons. Most mills and processors are building up stocks for 3-5 months, taking advantage of favorable price declines,” the report says.
Prices for domestic processing show a premium: for quality wheat with gluten over 20% and protein content of 11.5%, a premium of up to $5 is already offered against the export market.
