Nov '25 feed wheat futures hit a one-month high of £186/t on 22 May on adverse weather and fund short covering, then slipped back to about £182/t. Dryness in northern Europe, Russian drought and frost, a drop in US winter wheat ratings to 52% good-to-excellent, and heat in Henan are cited as supply risks.
Weather threats across major exporters and possible Chinese import demand support wheat prices, which lift the cost of wheat-based feed ingredients for buyers.
