# Grain prices see end of week rise - Farmers Weekly

> UK feed wheat ended the week at an average of £168.50/t ex-farm on September 21, and barley rose about £2.50 to £164/t. Analysts noted a near-record US maize crop limiting rallies and said the Vivergo biofuel plant shutdown may only modestly reduce UK wheat demand.
