WHEAT prices have remained stable, with most local activity on loading the boats that are in. It looks as if it is getting harder to sell some of the borderline biscuit wheats, as end users are now more demanding.
Following last week's neutral USDA report on soya, the oilseed markets are improving slowly. This includes oilseed rape, but we still have the problem that crushers are running at full capacity so we need someone to buy the EU surplus of the crop.
Thursday's prices
Grainfarmers, Thorp Arch. - Wheat: Nov £61; Dec £62; Jan £63. Barley: Nov £64; Dec £65; Jan £66. Oilseed rape: Nov £139; Dec £140; Jan £141.
