China Grain Reserve has temporarily suspended its grain trading business, according to reports confirmed by the company. The company said it is not making minimum-price purchases when market prices are above the floor and is buying only for reserve rotation, as authorities take steps to stabilize agricultural prices.
Suspending grain trading may reduce the state reserve’s market sales and ease supply pressure, while limited purchases provide less government buying support. The net price effect is uncertain, and the story does not identify a specific grain with a clear price impact.
