China's East Hope Group is converting a grain elevator in Kazakhskoye village, Akmola region, into a 100,000-tonne feed production facility at a cost of US$6 million, with launch planned for October 2026.
Cargill is investing more than USD 130 million over two years to expand and modernise poultry processing, feed production, grain storage, and farming infrastructure in Thailand and the Philippines, targeting rising global demand for high-quality protein.
The Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board's final assessment of the UK's 2026 cereal harvest shows winter wheat averaging 6.9 t/ha — about 11% below the five-year average — while spring barley and oats also fell well short of benchmarks. Oilseed rape was the sole standout crop, yielding roughly 19% above its five-year average. AHDB warns that some arable farmers are now facing a second or third successive difficult harvest.
Ukrainian wheat prices remain depressed but stable as Black Sea export logistics keep volumes well below capacity, while German feed wheat trades sideways at elevated levels. The discount of Ukrainian origins to Western European benchmarks is expected to persist into early October 2026.
Pakistan's Trading Corporation of Pakistan (TCP) has tendered for 750,000 tonnes of 2026-crop milling wheat on CFR Karachi/Gwadar terms at around USD 320–325 per tonne, but the high landed cost of imports — compounded by freight, port charges, and currency weakness — is expected to support rather than ease domestic wheat prices. Global benchmark prices from Ukraine, the EU, and the US have softened modestly in September, but analysts note Pakistan's firmness is driven by internal cost and currency dynamics rather than global supply tightness.
China's state grain reserve operator Sinograin has resumed large-scale soybean auctions, including a tranche of around 543,000 tonnes of 2023–2025 crop beans, in a move analysts say is designed to rotate aging stocks and free silo capacity ahead of potential fresh US arrivals. With China estimated to be roughly halfway toward a 25 MMT US soybean purchase commitment, market participants are closely watching upcoming high-level US–China talks for any signal on tariff relief, which could quickly accelerate buying and tighten US export capacity.
Feed-grade triticale prices in north-west Germany remained stable at 0.225 EUR/kg EXW Drentwede as of 17 September 2026, supported by firm EU feed grain sentiment, steady livestock demand, and tight coarse grain availability, according to CMB News.
German feed rye EXW prices have firmed modestly in northern regions, while Ukrainian rye offered FOB Odesa has ticked up slightly, as ample EU grain supply and persistent Black Sea risk premia shape a cautious but balanced rye market heading into late September 2026.
Grain and animal feed trader Cefetra has opened a new purpose-built bulk storage and handling facility at Berth 43, Port of Tilbury, representing a £21 million infrastructure investment. The 14,000 square metre site can store up to 65,000 tonnes of imported animal feed products, including soyabean meal, and is designed for direct vessel discharge operations.
A new 14,000-square-metre bulk storage and handling facility has opened at Berth 43 at the Port of Tilbury, built for grain and animal feed trader Cefetra. The facility can hold up to 65,000 tonnes of imported animal feed products including soyabean meal and is designed to streamline vessel discharge operations serving the South and East of England.
Vietnam's SPS Office has reported that the EU, China, and the Middle East-Africa region issued 254 food safety and phytosanitary notifications between the start of 2026 and 15 September, with tighter pesticide residue limits, stricter registration and traceability rules, and new labelling requirements that could directly affect Vietnamese agricultural and food exports.
U.S. corn and soybean futures rebounded on Monday, 14 September 2026, driven by technical buying and strong export inspection data, while wheat futures moved lower amid persistent demand pressure. December corn settled at $5.3325 per bushel and November soybeans reached $13.0425, with weekly soybean export inspections surging nearly 45% above the prior week and exceeding analyst forecasts. Wheat remained under pressure as cumulative 2026/27 inspections tracked roughly 28% below last year's pace.
