The European crop monitoring service Mars on April 27 raised its grain yield forecasts in the EU due to favorable weather conditions, although it warned of a rainfall deficit in some regions.   Sowing conditions remained favourable throughout Europe throughout the season, with moderate temperatures and sufficient rainfall in most regions.

The domestic corn market reacted with a delay to the increase in world prices. On the basis of CPT-Odessa, prices increased by 5%, and on FOB they reached the highest level in the season. However, the reason is the devaluation of the dollar and the increase in stock market quotes, and not a shortage of supplies.   SWOT prices are rising on forecasts of a reduction in sowing areas in the US, high export rates (88% of the annual plan), and worsening weather in Brazil.   IGC...

The increase in demand for Ukrainian corn from Turkey has somewhat stimulated demand from European buyers, who are trying to purchase the necessary batches before prices in Ukraine rise.   During the week, export prices for corn in Ukraine increased by 150-200 UAH/t to 10,950-11,100 UAH/t or $220-223/t with delivery to Black Sea ports, but farmers continue to hold back sales in anticipation of further growth.   Cold weather is delaying the sowing of spring crops, so...

The sharp 14% increase in oil prices over the past week continues to support biofuel demand and rapeseed prices.   In addition, in Germany, the Bundestag on April 24 adopted legislative amendments to the RED III directive, which set new increased targets for the use of biofuels and abolished double counting of biofuels, which will allow for an increase in real demand for physical biofuels from January 1, 2026.

However, the U.S. spring wheat planted area...
