A farm-press analysis of the 2021/22 US wheat marketing year notes USDA projected an average price of $5.50 per bushel, versus about $5 in the prior year. Harvest-delivery bids were around $6.40 in early March.
The article explains how June-August prices weigh heavily in the annual average because most Oklahoma HRW is sold then.
USDA's price projection and firm harvest bids point to a higher wheat cost base for feed formulators in the coming marketing year. Prices are expected to stay firm, supporting wheat as a feed ingredient.
