🇨🇳#China's state media says it will be hard to raise grain production much further and that the key to doing so "lies in science & technology." Factors include workforce shortages, aging farmers, lack of tech & arable lands. Poor soil health has also been of concern.

Reuters: #China approved the first gene-edited disease-resistant #wheat We could see more of China's GE wheat varieties in the future, as it developed another variety with longer and heavier kernels and supposedly high yields earlier this year. Wonder if one day Chinese

An uncommon close in Chicago #wheat on Friday. Looks like someone bought a substantial volume (~2K contracts?) during the last few minutes of the session despite the closed market on Monday...hmm If you trade #wheat and don't read sizov.report you might miss something

German barley 20% below expectations. #wheat on the way to end up 25% below. Same in France. Huge beginning stocks and an early harvest not bullish spot….but… Lows of the season next 3 weeks.

🇫🇷Disrupted by heavy rains, just 41% of #France's 2024 soft #wheat harvest met the key protein standard, below a 5yr avg of 58%. Only 28% of the crop had test weights above the standard threshold (75% is avg). France's non-EU 24/25 wheat exports are now set to fall 61% YOY.

Record high Food Price Index in July 2025 while ag commodities keep trading lower below the cost of production. Something is fundamentally broken in our food supply. Animal proteins are becoming unaffordable for the middle class living in big cities while farmers can't survive.
