Some market talk.

You probably grow durum being close to the queen city,,, where do you think it could go sum? what are your thoughts? especially knowing the conditions in the traditional durum growing areas in SK, AB, ND, MT.
Does Italy et al have a avg crop? bumper crop? will they export?

My main thought is how can durum be substituted at the mill? Where could the price go, after watching what happened to canola last winter?

Hard red spring wheats can be used for pasta, high protein give better quality.
Pulse flour works as well, colour and the physical properties of what foods you are looking for is key, Durum is like a Brand, so semolina is a matter of preference as much as any thing else.


“All-purpose flour does what it says on the tin, so it's perfectly fine to use for making pasta. However, most pasta recipes will recommend either semola or “00” flour.Jan. 31, 2020”

How much more people will pay for the wheat used in their food dishes is a matter of affluence and wealth… not nutrition…

Usually Hard Red Spring is worth more than Durum… a 1 HRS with very high HVK… high protein… can make wonderful food!

Marketing talk , WTF?
How dare you

Lock your bins boys!! I recently bought all the locks from Peavey and Home Hardware. 😂😂
This is our year to control prices.

Wonder how many of the crooks at the grain companies will put “limited tonnage” in their texts they send out? Sorry it’s going to be a limited tonnage year.

I thought Morocco had a big crop coming?
Are they storing up incase prices go through the roof??

Europe’s crop isn’t great, too much rain!!

Just don’t give in to the grain companies sale tactics.

Over and out .....

Don't forget grain companies set the basis, set their charges and assess your quality and dockage. They have more than one way to cover losses and return a profit.

This year is setting up a lot like 2015, wouldn't be surprised to see 60c reds and 80c greens.

After reading the UN report of climate hysteria and the world is going to all burn, you would think that it could possibly give a big boost to the grain markets. If nothing else Im thinking it could be an opportunity that investors are looking at just like Gamestop or silver. Markets don't work on supply and demand like they used to, its more like everyone jumping on the bandwagon when price is going up and everyone jumping off and grabbing profits when things pull back. So I think it could be a wild winter for grain prices like Wheats, Beans and Corn they have the most volume and are easy to buy. I would not be surprised to see wheat in the mid teens or low 20s.

Interesting talking about cattle in Mexico… Texas Ag report report (he took a tour into Mexico…that the drought so bad in places in Mexico… up to 70% death rate have decimated some cattle herds… Mexico bought Soybeans today…

From Google:

About 70 percent of Mexico is affected by drought, up from about half in December. About a fifth of the country is experiencing extreme drought compared to less than five percent each year since 2012.Jul. 15, 2021…

Main durum growing basins include Meditteranean, Canada and US, though many other regions like southern Europe, India are growing areas. 2 outta 3 is looking disastrous. There is a lot of pasta eaten in N.America and European continent. Consumption trends point to pasta and legumes as major components in urban diets. That’s where the money is. But and a big But is that consumers are price-conscious and when high durum prices are reflected in a box of lasagne noodles, substitution will no doubt be the result but pasta is so rediculously cheap now, a doubling in price would likely have little effect. That being said, I believe that marketers are going to be very short of product, especially if this harvest is delayed or frozen. So, whats in the fields of Eastern Sask and Western Manitoba is still iffy and until its in the bin, every pre-sold position is shaking in its boots. How high depends on so many variables, shorts hanging on line, weather to harvest, yield surprises. No wise man would commit a guess at this critical stage. Even if you are Sumdumguy, you would only be furting in the wind. Just know many old Frenchmen who fill old bins with poor quality and wait for crunch times to fill their pockets.

I think with the purchase of Italgrani pasta by the richardson group they have a good hold on the north American and export market for durum?
