Ukrainian wheat market: trading activity was low last week
12.04.2017
Last week grain price changes were insignificant in the Ukrainian grain market, as trading activity was rather low. Wheat exports decreased. UkrAgroConsult believes that by the end of last week the export capacity of Ukrainian wheat had been realized by more than 90% in the 2016/17 season.
Export prices for Ukrainian milling wheat with 12.5% protein strengthened slightly. Demand from Egypt remained the main support for the Ukrainian export market of milling wheat, as a half of all wheat shipments went to this country at that time.
