High-quality wheat prices are rising rapidly, and here is how the industry sees it
High-quality wheat prices are rising rapidly. In recent times, prices of high-quality strong-gluten wheat have risen rapidly across various regions, and the market for buying and selling high-quality and ordinary wheat can be described as a tale of two extremes. The reason is that some traders believe that, based on last year's experience, high-quality wheat will still have a relatively good market this year, and they have entered the market one after another to snap up supplies, with the mentality of hoarding high-quality wheat continuously strengthening.

High-quality wheat in northern Henan and the Hebei region has become the main focus of attention in the industry.
