The outlook identifies Black Sea shipping disruption, smaller Argentine and Australian crops, and firm U.S. export sales as supportive factors for grains, while Southern Hemisphere harvest supply, fast Argentine corn sowing, and Russia-Ukraine peace talks could weigh on prices. Talks among Russia, Ukraine, and the United States were expected to focus on ending the war, with wheat markets viewed as vulnerable to renewed support if export conditions fail to improve.
Disrupted Black Sea shipping and damaged infrastructure constrain export availability and support wheat prices, while any agreement to reduce attacks on vessels or ports could ease that premium. Smaller crop expectations and possible Chinese buying also offer support to grains, though seasonal harvest supply is a bearish counterweight.
