WHEAT prices seem to have settled down after recent falls. There still seems to be plenty of wheat around, compared with demand, and Brussels keeps confusing the market by releasing some intervention stocks for export.
Oilseed markets have fallen following a bearish US report on soya stocks. Like the wheat market, there seems to be plenty around so consumers are relaxed about supplies for the rest of this, and next, season.
