The wheat market is experiencing price adjustments due to various factors, with food wheat prices continuing to decline following a drop in feed wheat, bran, and oilseed meal prices. The resignation of the head of the National Bank of Turkey has led to a collapse of the Turkish lira, impacting Russian wheat exports. In contrast, French wheat prices rose for the first time in 11 sessions, supported by a weakening euro and increased American wheat prices. US wheat exchanges faced pressure from USDA monitoring data showing improved winter crops, but received support from rising soybean and corn markets. Ukrainian exporters have reduced the purchase prices for wheat, and the seasonal increase in wheat supply is putting further pressure on prices, especially with low demand from exporters.
