Strategie Grains raised its EU soft wheat crop forecast by 1.7 million tons to 123.5 million tons, driven by Spain. It also lifted its EU barley forecast by 0.5 million tons to 53.0 million tons, though the soft wheat crop is still below last year's 126.1 million tons.
A larger EU crop trims import demand and supports a bearish tilt for wheat and barley, but the expected year-on-year fall and possible Russian downgrades keep the outlook supportive.
After 1,006 past bearish report events, Wheat (SRW) moved a median +0.0% over 5 sessions (50% higher; middle half -1.6% to +1.8%), and +0.3% over 20.
