WHEAT
General Comments: Futures closed higher on weather worries for the Great Plains. Ideas of tight supplies here of high quality Wheat and ideas that the hard Red Winter Wheat crop will struggle to get planted in a timely way as it still has not rained all that much in areas of the central and southern Great Plains. Most farmers are planting in the Great Plains, but crops will struggle. Yields and quality in Spring Wheat areas were hurt earlier in the season due to excessive rains. Traders will now pay more attention to the southern Great Plains as that is where most of the Wheat is and it is too dry there. Wheat is still finding its way into feed rations as many buyers do not want to pay the high prices for Corn. The spread is correcting, but Wheat is still cheap to Corn. Wheat will see a lot of selling on any rally attempts as USDA world data shows that there is plenty around except for here in the US. Wheat prices will need very strong domestic demand to hold rallies together, Charts show that Wheat trends are mixed.
Overnight News: Mostly dry conditions are expected in the southern Great Plains. Northern areas could see mostly dry conditions. Temperatures should average near to above normal. The Canadian Prairies should get mostly dry conditions. Temperatures will average near to above normal this week and below normal this weekend. Gulf basis levels are steady for Soft Red Winter Wheat and weak for Hard Red Winter Wheat.
