The global market for high-protein wheat is experiencing a tight supply and demand situation, with prices expected to rise peak in the first quarter of 2022. This is due to issues in key production areas, including China, where record rainfall has affected wheat quality. As a result, China is importing wheat from Canada and the US, despite political tensions with Australia, the leading exporter. However, the USDA anticipates that China's total wheat harvest may increase due to quality issues. Meanwhile, Europe and the US are also experiencing record wheat prices.
