Mild, wetter weather has benefited EU winter crops, according to the EU's MARS crop monitor. Crops in northern and central-eastern Europe have hardened, but limited snow cover around the Black Sea raises frost risk if a cold snap arrives.
Rapeseed sowing area rose 12.1% in France and 8.7% in Germany.
Good crop conditions and expanded rapeseed area point to adequate European supply, which is mildly bearish for wheat and rapeseed-linked meal. Frost risk in the Black Sea region is a potential upside factor if a cold snap occurs.
After 334 past bearish weather events, Wheat (SRW) moved a median -0.2% over 5 sessions (47% higher; middle half -1.9% to +1.7%), and -0.2% over 20.
