Tridge summary

The global commodity markets are experiencing a crisis with record-breaking prices, leading to a tight supply of key agricultural components. Specifically, the availability of barley and wheat is constrained, with difficulty in sourcing larger lots, though recent deliveries from Poland are helping. The protein components, such as rapeseed meal, are particularly scarce and expensive, while soybean meal, though costly, is more readily available.

Alternative proteins like peas and field beans are also under consideration as potential replacements.
