    How many markets will be willing to accept it? Remember Triffid?
    Is this an opportunity for Canada?
    Perhaps China and Brazil don't care about GM Wheat... so as long as they do not make China mad... ???

      Tell me I am conspiracy theorist. Durum graded a #3 cause the guy with the microscope thought he saw some frost damage maybe some ergot, lighter test weights. Told them I will sit on it until spring.

      Well look at that, get a call Friday and its magically a #2 now. Funny how that works.

        What feature has this GMO wheat been modified for? Herbicide resistance? Disease resistance? Structural/standability? Insect/pest resistance? Seed quality/protein/yield?

        How about a GMO wheat that grows well in saline soils?
        How about a herbicide resistant wheat that can be sprayed to kill foxtail, in crop.
        How about perennial wheat?

          Reducing farmers input costs?

            Supposedly put in a sunflower gene for drought tolerance. In some camps I doubt it matters.....as long as its an unadultered pristine virgin seeds used to grow the crop. Because Mother Nature never adapts to change or creates genetic mutations...right?

              My goodness, when analysts can't even agree on wheat price direction based on technical analysis, what good is technical analysis? Looking "back", over what time frame?
              Black sea was more or less out of the wheat export market for 100 years. Their return which ramped up after 2012 has changed everything
