bit north of London, UK | But nothing in the scale of things compared with your ongoing situation.
Ireland, UK, northern France, much of Germany
WHEAT - opposite of last year which was low yield / reasonable quality due to too dry.
Potential big / huge crop till two months ago.
Jet strem in wrong place (running into N France instead of Scotland) has bought cool temps and constant damp / wet / VERY wet weather.
Leading to worst disease pressure in living memory yada yada
In particular fusarium et al ear complex diseases are RAMPANT...will this translate to excessive DON? You would have to say yes, while hopeing...
UK and Ireland probably will have very little human consumption wheat (some careful blending with import surely possibly but...)
France and Germany may be a bit better.
Bottom line to take away - Europe will be well down on quality wheat, but we will have some sort of half useful heap of pig feed.
If you have quality wheat, don't give the premium away. Where quality is bushelweight, ok looking sample, LOW DON.
Bit short of protein? Don't worry - buyers not in a position to worry about the depth of icing on the cake when there is now't fit to bake the cake in the first place!
Canola / oilseed...who can tell till the combine rolls. We have what looks like impressive crop, Germany dosen't, but as the sun has gone AWOL...
Good luck to all.
