@RussianGrainTra @GoddessofGrain Depends on the drug I suppose…

[Jeffrey McPike @Jmcwheat]

@aghedger So very normal this time of year. But wheat is bearish due to rains adding bushels.

[Jeffrey McPike @Jmcwheat]

@naomiblohm Think your export demand figures are optimistic for the coming year. Unlikely USDA or market starts at much above 2.0 bil bushels.

[Jeffrey McPike @Jmcwheat]

@MisterCommodity Wheat is no longer corn.

@farmerchad80 @HorschAnderson @JohnDeere @gooseneckimp Think I knew your dad or Uncle - Norm.

@GoddessofGrain @biofuelslaw @usgrainscouncil @iowa_corn Hope Japan is next as an ethanol importer of size!

[Jeffrey McPike @Jmcwheat]

@5thWave_tcronin Sure seems like a non-story to me. “Help”? In what ways? Russia is already the largest exporter of wheat and is running low for this season. Fertilizer? Maybe that is a change. But not “grain” unless the banking change actually works - and that is not that major for grains.

@sizov_andre And can confirm very difficult to get firm freight offer for vessels loading in US Gulf and other ports versus the inquiries we seeing daily from North African buyers. Clarity would be very welcomed.

@DanProft Winning!!

[Jeffrey McPike @Jmcwheat]

@GEIKKO270588 Open question Sebastien. So far no change but tomorrow’s another day!

[Jeffrey McPike @Jmcwheat]

@kannbwx Durum.

@5thWave_tcronin @Lohn_Jocke Take a look at commodity “monetization” programs if you want to get even more upset.

[Jeffrey McPike @Jmcwheat]

@kdinvestors @WheatTraderFCSt What the GOI can “force” is the use of more rice and less wheat in the heavily subsidized programs that support and are distributed to the poor. This can kick the wheat import “can” down the road. Always remember the Indian consumer can stay hungry longer than the S&D suggests.

[Jeffrey McPike @Jmcwheat]

@aghedger Unlikely China. More likely other Asian destination.

[Jeffrey McPike @Jmcwheat]

@Strawhats7 Maybe the market is telling us that the world wheat carry out is NOT so tight. Or maybe this is a 2010 May period…the “calm” before the “storm”.

[Jeffrey McPike @Jmcwheat]

@GoddessofGrain @E_Energy_Adams Don’t forget to include I dia in your corn import calcs.

[Jeffrey McPike @Jmcwheat]

@danmaltby11 @kannbwx Not China, Dan. Not this time; Karen is correct I believe.

[Jeffrey McPike @Jmcwheat]

@Strawhats7 Not sure where you are getting this “SRW is now the cheapest wheat” idea…but agree with many of your other points. Thanks for your comments.

[Jeffrey McPike @Jmcwheat]

@kannbwx Very likely EU and Asian (non-China) buyers.

[Jeffrey McPike @Jmcwheat]

@WheatTraderFCSt Scheduled for Saturday. Good job!
