    Foreign media news on December 29: Argentina's wheat production in 2022/23 is expected to be 11.
    5 million mt, only half of the previous year's output of 23 million mt, and will also be the lowest since 2014/15 (10.
    9 million mt), as yields are expected to fall to their lowest level
    since 2008/09, according to the Rosario Grain Exchange (BCR).
     
    The exchange expects Argentina to export only 6 million mt of wheat in 2022/23, of which 5.
    5 million mt is milled wheat.

    Domestic wheat prices in Argentina have soared to their highest level
    in 10 years.
     
    The exchange expects Argentine wheat ending stocks in 2022/23 to be 1.
    72 million mt, the lowest level in five years
    .
    Wheat ending stocks in 2017/18 were 1.
    2 million tonnes
    .
     
    Domestic wheat consumption is also expected to fall to 5.
    5 million mt due to reduced wheat production, also a five-year low
    , the exchange said.
     
    As of December 20, 2022, Argentina's domestic wheat price was around $350/mt, the highest level in 10 years, due to limited
    supplies.
    For comparison, soft red winter wheat futures in Chicago were trading at around $279.
    6/mt as of Dec.
    22, with cold weather in the U.
    S.
    last week threatening the winter wheat crop
    .
     
    However, Ukraine continues to export grain through Black Sea ports, and Russian wheat supplies are huge and exporters sell wheat at low prices, putting pressure
    on the wheat market.
    As a result, wheat export prices in Argentina and the United States are now higher than in other regions such as Russia, Australia and France
