Wheat...A continued recovery in wheat futures bolstered west coast
wheat bids in early-week trade, especially for hard red winter and hard
red spring wheat. Protein wheat basis levels have strengthened over the
past two weeks, while white wheat basis has turned defensive; standing
nearly 30 cents below recent highs.
Shipments...Weekly export inspections showed a good week of loadings
for hard red winter, putting the total for all wheat at 12.5 mb for the
week. Year-to-date shipments now stand at 692 mb and stand 3% behind a
year ago. Hard red winter accounted for two-thirds of the overall total
with 8.1 mb, followed by hard red spring with 2.3 mb. Soft white wheat
shipments came to a standstill with just 400,000 bushels shipped. Japan
and Taiwan were top destinations off the west coast with 1.8 mb each.
