(23rd October)

Markets remain fairly quiet with some harvest cereals still looking for nearby selling opportunities that fit. Whilst it does remain difficult to find any significant spot buying interest, it is apparent that supplies do look a little limited going forward, and we therefore feel that there could be some support seen as we approach New Year if a tighter supply situation does in fact become reality. A cold winter would clearly lift feed demand and boost values quickly, so in short a finely balanced market.

Non organic markets are still setting the bearish trend despite a small domestic 2024 cereal crop, and this sentiment does transfer across into our premium marketplace.

Protein values are a little lower recently as cheaper container rates, and favourable currency movements, have reduced replacement quotes.
