Next season – early indications, very little data currently available
HGCA/Andersons “Early Bird” Autumn planting survey – 2010/11 English wheat area seen up 5.9%
First official estimates from Defra December Survey - English data out on March 2nd, UK data on March 11th
Yields ever more difficult to predict!
Drilling went well – dry & moist across most of UK
Snow cover provided some protection from very cold weather
Strategie Grains - UK 2010 wheat crop = 16.05Mt, up 12% on 09/10

Recap – Implications for 2009/10 and beyond
Wheat• Record 2008/09 surplus followed by likely 2009/10 surplus• Huge competition for exports in 2009/10 plus volatile FOREX• Better quality in UK should avoid major discounts, but still a follower
Feed grains• Tight (e.g. US maize), but EU barley at intervention levels• So markets exposed to an unknown supply issue in the future:
volatility• Bioethanol = changing dynamics???
Oilseeds• SA soyabean crop crucial• EU OSR market looks relaxed, UK now OSR net-importer
