U.S. farmers pursue soybean profits, shrug at tight wheat stocks (Successful Farming) 

March 31, 2022


Successful Farming published an article stating that American farmers say they will plant more soybeans — a record 91 million acres — and less corn and spring wheat despite tight global wheat supplies that have been compounded by the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The U.S. is the world’s largest agricultural exporter. Senior research fellow Joseph Glauber said, “The wheat market will remain tight unless we have a bumper wheat crop here and in Europe, and will likely stay tight until next year.” Canada, Argentina, Australia, Kazakhstan, and even Russia could help with the near-term supply, he said.
