Wheat stops its recent climb and falls more than 7% in a single day

Wheat stops its recent climb and falls more than 7% in a single day

The supply of the two main wheat powers that represent almost a third of world trade has been paralyzed since the beginning of the Russian attackwith ships stranded in ports and with no signs of reactivation in the short term.

The absence of the wheat that Russia and the Ukraine usually provide generated a spike in the price of the grain, in the face of a demand with a very reduced supply.

The problem with wheat could also be transferred to corn if the conflict continues, because in April the planting of this cereal should begin, of which Ukraine is the fourth largest supplier in the world.

Corn this day fell 0.2% to US$295.27. Since the Russian attack began, when it closed at US$269.18 the previous day, it has increased 12.83%, that is, a quarter of what wheat did in these nine days. Soybeans finally fell 0.5% and stood at US$614.53 per ton.
