Today is July 16, 2022. Today's content is mainly as follows:
So far, China has been under great pressure to buy summer grain. According to the statistics of the State Grain and Material Reserve Bureau, as of July 5, 2022, all kinds of grain enterprises in the main producing areas have purchased 310.53 million tons of wheat, an increase of 2.78 million tons year-on-year.
According to professional analysis, the acceleration of grain purchase this year is mainly because the current wheat price is at a historical high and farmers' willingness to sell grain has increased.
It is reported that the price of wheat in the new season this year has made great strides, rising rapidly from the initial 1.45 yuan. At the peak, the average price of wheat in the six major producing areas was as high as 1.55- 1.6 yuan, much higher than the same period last year. Some big grain growers even said that this year is the best year to grow wheat.
According to the report of agriculture, countryside and farmers in China, in Renze District, Xingtai City, Hebei Province, a large grain grower planted high-quality strong gluten wheat this year, and the selling price reached 1.65 yuan/kg. Excluding land rent, agricultural materials, chemical fertilizers and labor costs, the net income of one mu of wheat reached 585 yuan, the best year over the years.
However, information from flour enterprises also shows that due to the higher wheat price in the new season and the pressure of rising costs, many flour mills have also started the price increase mode this year, and the impact of higher market prices of bulk raw materials on the end consumer market is emerging.
Known as the "noodle king", Keming Noodle Industry recently announced that in view of the excessive increase in wheat prices and rising operating costs, the company decided to increase the sales prices of various products from July 16, 2022, with an average increase of about 5%.
However, in a flour enterprise in Changji, Xinjiang, due to the rising price of raw grain, 25 kilograms of flour was raised to 3 yuan per bag, and in a flour enterprise in Wuwei, Gansu, the price of flour was also raised to about 2 yuan per bag.
In this week's daily live broadcast of grain and oil, we also made a judgment on this year's wheat market. We believe that under the background of inflation and the obstruction of wheat export in the Black Sea, there is still a high probability that wheat prices will go up this year, and we believe that the current price may have reached the bottom position.
Up to now, the purchase price of wheat in Wudeli, the largest flour enterprise in China, is between 1.53- 1.55 yuan/kg, and the latest purchase price of Jinsha River, the largest noodle enterprise in Hebei Province, is around1.53-/kloc-.
It should be pointed out that due to the rapid increase in wheat prices in the early part of this year, the acquisition cost of some traders who were originally prepared to hold grain for increase was higher. Recently, the price of wheat in the main producing areas has been adjusted back, and some traders have already recognized losses.
The decrease of major buyers at the grass-roots level is expected to make the current wheat price run in low areas for some time. With the decline of grain sources in the market, it is expected that wheat will usher in a good upward trend after August.
In other respects, the latest news from the US Department of Agriculture shows that in the week ending July 7th, China buyers bought 265,000 tons of wheat, which is the first large-scale purchase of wheat from the United States this year, and the largest weekly purchase of wheat from the United States since June 2020 165438+ 10.
China Customs data also show that China imported 2.72 million tons of wheat from the United States last year, accounting for 27.8% of China's total wheat imports in that year, but the import volume from June to May this year was close to zero.
