If there’s one bright spot in the Prairie feed grain market that would be export prices for barley and wheat. Susanne Leclerc of Market Master Ltd. in Edmonton said the grain elevators have upped their prices in order to meet export demand.
Feed prices for barley and wheat have pulled back a little following an upward swing that started in November and ended in early December, said Travis Ebens of CorNine Commodities in Lacombe, Alta.
Australia’s 2025/26 barley harvest is underway and early expectations for a record should see the country as an active participant in the world export market going forward.
Feed prices on the Canadian Prairies are likely to remain steady for the time being, said Brandon Motz, a manager at CorNine Commodities in Lacombe, Alta.
