Rayglen's April 30, 2025 comments say old crop feed barley bids in Saskatchewan are strong at $5.50 to $6.00/bu FOB farm, and oat trade is steady in the high $3s FOB farm for feed oats. Seeding reports indicate a 16% reduction in pea acres, reversing earlier expectations of an increase, largely attributed to tariffs disrupting markets.
Tighter pea acreage and firm old crop barley bids support feed grain values in Western Canada, while steady oat trade suggests limited near-term price pressure for feed buyers.
