WHEAT prices have remained under pressure as there seems to be little to be optimistic about in the export market.

The possible introduction of import quotas from Jan 2003 has done very little to firm prices as the buying has already been done by importers.

Oilseed prices have remained firm as there seems to be very little news that can come along to push prices down significantly.
