The United States will import the largest ship of British wheat in 20 years
[China Agricultural Machinery Industry News] The United States will import a British ship of more than 20 years from the United States, because the supply of British wheat is sufficient, the pound is weak, and ocean freight has fallen to the bottom, making this unusual transaction a reality.
The United States will import the British wheat for the first time in 20 years.
According to data from the North Carolina Port Authority, the ship SbiLambada will leave the Port of Bristol and ship about 61,000 tons of British wheat, which will arrive in Wilmington, North Carolina on May 22. city
It is rare for the United States to import such a large amount of wheat, especially since the United States is the third largest wheat exporter in the world, second only to Russia and Canada. The UK is a very small wheat producer that exports feed wheat to other EU member states. According to customs records dating back to 1992, the UK has never exported so much wheat to the United States.
In recent months, the pace of UK wheat exports has accelerated, as domestic wheat has been harvested for two consecutive years, causing wheat prices to fall, approaching a low level in six years, while the pound has weakened, boosting the competitiveness of UK wheat exports. British Agricultural and Horticultural Development Authority (AHDB) analyst Jack Watts said that after the soaring corn prices, British wheat became a competitive alternative to farmers.
Watts said that UK feed wheat is very competitive in the international market, mainly because corn prices are rising relative to wheat.
So far, UK feed wheat futures prices have fallen by 6.1% so far, and even fell below £100 ($144) per tonne in March, a low level since 2010. According to the government's forecast, high wheat production means that the supply of wheat in the UK will increase by 38% this year.
French corn prices have risen 11% so far this year, as the dry weather in Brazil threatens the supply of corn in the second season. Brazil is the second largest corn exporter in the world.
Even though the United States is a net exporter of wheat, local differences still exist, and sometimes freight costs cause merchants to import from overseas. But when the United States imports wheat, businesses may import from Canada. The border between Canada and the United States is 5,500 miles long and there are free trade agreements between the two countries. North Carolina is one of the largest turkey and pork producing areas in the United States and therefore requires large amounts of food.
According to the US Department of Agriculture, the United States may import 3.27 million tons of wheat in 2015/16 (June to May), a four-year low.
According to customs data from the AHDB website, the number of wheat that the ship is about to ship to Wilmington exceeds the total amount of wheat exported to the United States by the United Kingdom in 2014/15. To date, the largest importers of British wheat have been Spain, the Netherlands, Hungary and Ireland.
