Wheat export sales slip for four weeks.

286,598 tonnes were sold in this week. The trade estimate was 250,000 - 550,000.

USDA’s 825 million bushel new crop export goal, for the year that started June 1, is -2% from the five year average sale. Year to date sales are +4% vs. average. To meet USDA's goal remaining sales can fall to -2% vs. average through next May. Today's sale was -35% vs. average. Wheat sales started the year off with a bang. We now have four weeks of sales that, despite our price advantage vs. competitors, is -23% below average. We are now behind USDA's goal.
