Corn price fluctuation risks remain in the outlook, North China market needs caution
Since mid-December, corn prices in the North China production area have fluctuated quite frequently, overall going through a process of decline-rebound-decline. On one hand, the weather improved, corn supply in North China recovered quickly, and enterprises saw increased arrivals, but downstream demand could not absorb it effectively, and the market pattern shifted again from a period of tight supply to a situation of oversupply, with prices continuing to fall reasonably as the market expected. On the other hand, grain moisture content was relatively high, and enterprises interested in low-moisture grain sources were forced to raise purchase prices, which in turn drove prices to stop falling and stabilise, and combined with increased outflow of some grain sources, prices in some areas even rebounded slightly. As of now, the ex-factory price of 14.5% moisture third-grade corn at deep-processing enterprises in Weifang, Shandong is 1880-1940 yuan/tonne, down about 20 yuan/tonne from last weekend, with a few enterprises seeing slightly larger declines; the ex-factory price in Shijiazhuang, Hebei is around 1740 yuan/tonne, down about 20 yuan/tonne from last weekend. It is expected that in the short term North China corn will remain stable with a weak bias, and prices will fall more in areas where farmers are more active in selling grain.

Wheat prices may remain fluctuating around the floor purchase price for an extended period
Wheat prices may remain fluctuating around the floor purchase price for an extended period. Last week, new wheat began to come onto the market, and Jiangsu, Anhui and Hubei launched floor purchase. The old wheat market saw light buying and selling, and wheat prices continued to run weakly; flour prices in production areas were stable, while bran prices were stable with a slight decline. At present, domestic policy grain source inventories are high, and insufficient demand from grain-using enterprises plus too-high auction reserve prices have led to slow digestion of policy inventories, making regional warehouse capacity conflicts prominent. This will directly affect the floor purchase intensity for wheat in major production areas, greatly reducing the squeezing effect on circulating grain sources in the wheat market, and the price-lifting effect of policy purchases on wheat prices may be significantly lengthened by the purchase cycle, causing wheat prices to run around the floor purchase price for a relatively long time.</p> <p> <strong>US soybean futures prices are expected to continue fluctuating downward</strong> Last week, the port distribution price of imported soybeans continued to fall. Affected by the decline in international soybean prices, the cost of imported soybeans decreased, while demand for downstream products such as soybean meal and soybean oil did not recover noticeably, so the port distribution price of imported soybeans continued weak. The aftereffects of a global soybean bumper crop remain, US soybean planting progress is stable, and El Nino weather is also favorable for US soybean growth, making weather speculation difficult for the time being. The recent sharp rise in the US dollar exchange rate has also put downward pressure on CBOT soybean futures prices, and CBOT soybean futures prices are expected to continue fluctuating downward.</p> <p> </p>
