Kazakhstan Grain Market Sees Sluggish Activity Amid Harvest Anticipation
Trading activity on Kazakhstan's grain market remained sluggish last week, according to APK-Inform Asia. Most buyers held off making deals in anticipation of the new harvest, which helped keep wheat prices stable.
However, prices for feed flour rose due to stronger demand from China. Export prices were as follows:
Class 3 wheat was priced at $260-270 per ton DAP Saryagash, while Class 4 wheat was quoted at $245-255 per ton DAP Saryagash.
High-protein wheat fetched $285-290 per ton DAP Saryagash. Feed barley (FOB Aktau) was priced at $220-225 per ton and feed barley (DAP Dostyk/Alashankou) at $210 per ton.
