Indian traders have resumed wheat exports for the first time in four years, with ITC loading 22,000 tonnes at Kandla for the UAE. Ample stocks and higher global prices and freight rates have opened a window for small shipments to Asia and the Middle East.
Resumed Indian shipments add a small amount of supply to export markets, though high domestic prices are expected to limit volumes. The move is a modest bearish factor for world wheat prices.

Resumed Indian wheat shipments (22,000 t to UAE) add export competition, though high prices limit demand, so the bearish effect is modest.
