China's autumn grain procurement, which covers about 70 percent of the country's annual grain output, is progressing steadily, with reported purchase volumes for the season. Prices for high-quality grain are stable to rising, and local authorities and buyers are coordinating orderly purchasing and storage.
Autumn buying is expected to continue smoothly in the coming months.
Steady state procurement supports domestic grain prices and reduces near-term pressure for Chinese import demand. The effect on world feed grain prices is limited unless procurement slows or imports rise.
