Winnipeg, July 9 – CWB has raised its price projections for most classes of wheat set to be marketed during the 2015-16 crop year.
Rising U.S. crop futures, dryness in Western Canada, delays in the U.S. winter wheat harvest and hot conditions in Europe were all behind some of the strength in the Pool Return Outlooks, according to the update.
Wheat PROs rose by $25 per tonne, while durum was up by $30 from the previous projections on June 25.
The drought conditions in Western Canada were also cited as a supportive factor for canola sold through CWB pools, with pooled prices up $17 to $18 from the June report.
