# Feed weekly outlook: Feed grain prices flagging - Manitoba Co-operator

> Prairie feed grain prices have softened as seeding progresses and many producers already have coverage. Seeded barley acreage in Western Canada is expected to rise 10-15 percent in 2019, and spot barley and wheat prices each fell 25 cents over three weeks. Export demand for Canadian wheat is cautious due to trade disputes.
