What is the price of flour now?

Since the beginning of July, there have been sufficient grain sources, smooth transactions and normal supply in flour markets around the country. In some areas, due to the increase in raw grain prices and production costs, some processing enterprises have raised the ex-factory price of flour, and the market price has also increased. However, due to the increase of temperature and humidity, it is difficult to preserve flour, and the storage capacity of buyers everywhere is very small, so the market demand is relatively weak. However, due to the support of production costs, the price of flour has remained stable.

Consumer demand decreased, and flour in Quzhou, Zhejiang Province stopped rising and stabilized. Due to the rising price of new wheat in the producing area, the flour price of Quzhou manufacturers in Zhejiang Province generally rose. Recently, the weather is hot, the consumption demand in the flour market has decreased, and the price has gradually stopped rising and stabilized. At present, the price of special powder in the market is 2580-2660 yuan/ton, and the price of special powder is 2420-2480 yuan/ton, both of which are the same as last week. With a large number of new wheat in the producing area, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. It is expected that the flour supply in Quzhou market will be sufficient in the later period, and the price will be stable and weak.

Based on the analysis of the current wheat and flour market, it is more likely that the flour market will remain stable in the near future. Although the flour market is in the off-season of consumption and the market demand is weak, it is unlikely that the price of flour will decline due to the high price of wheat and the support of production costs.

This year's agricultural products (14.75, -0.54, -3.53%) are particularly attractive, and wheat continues this trend. Many purchased trucks have gone to the fields, including state-owned enterprises, private enterprises and foreign companies. However, the "shiny silver" in their hands did not touch the hearts of farmers.

These days, Wang Ruixing, a farmer in Zhang Qiu Village, Beixi Township, Shenzhou City, Hebei Province, is a little "upset". She used to bask in wheat quietly in the open pit, but now she is disturbed by several strangers every day and asks if her family sells wheat. And her five-year-old son always takes the opportunity to slip out of her sight.

A few days later, Cavin Wang got acquainted with those strangers. From the conversation, we know that some of these people are from flour processing enterprises in neighboring counties and some are agents of large companies. Although it is said that the purchase price offered by these people is higher than each other, Cavin Wang has no intention of selling wheat at all, but just takes a wait-and-see attitude. "Everyone is very optimistic, all say to wait. There is no shortage of money anyway. "

When buyers go to the countryside, the phenomenon of farmers' "property hoarding" is not limited to this one, and this area is staged. Two days ago, Dong Shuangwei, an analyst of the first futures agricultural products, called his hometown in Henan. The information returned is that farmers are unwilling to sell. "In recent years, farmers have the experience of selling grain, and the sooner they sell, the more they will lose. Take corn as an example. Last autumn harvest, the price of 1.7 yuan/kg has now risen to 1.9 yuan/kg. Moreover, the momentum of rising wheat prices shows no signs of weakening, and farmers certainly do not want to sell. "

"In some areas of Henan Province, there are three or five villagers in each village who act as vendors or middlemen and stare at the wheat of the same villager every day. As long as the price is right, open it directly, and farmers don't have to pull it to the grain station in the town. " Dong Shuangwei said.

According to public information, in addition to state-owned grain enterprises such as China Grain Reserve, COFCO and Hualiang, there are also various grain trading enterprises, grain reserve enterprises, rural brokers and flour processing enterprises. Even foreign-funded enterprises that only bid for wheat in state-owned grain depots in previous years have entered the ranks of wheat acquisition. It is reported that Yihai Kerry Group only invested 600 million yuan in Jining to entrust local private grain purchasing enterprises, grain depots stripped from the grain bureau system and other purchasing entities to store and store wheat on their behalf.

"Yihai Kerry Group's purchase price has been higher than the market price, generally about 5% higher per catty. This further aggravated the reluctance of farmers to sell. " Dong Shuangwei said.

All this undoubtedly makes China Grain Storage feel more "pressure". According to the data of China Grain Storage Henan Branch, at present, * * * has collected about 8 million tons of wheat, compared with 1.34 million tons in the same period last year.

Zhang Hong, a commentator on Today's Watch, believes that the chaos in the wheat purchase market is not a bad thing, at least it will benefit farmers. Therefore, it cannot be said that the price increase itself is chaotic, because the angle of each market main station is different. If you look at it from the perspective of state-owned acquisition enterprises, you will feel a bit chaotic. Moreover, when the grain circulation system was reformed in 2004, the state has clearly stated that it has begun to introduce a multi-market mechanism.

However, in Dong Shuangwei's view, the increase of acquisition subjects may provide speculators with more space. "In recent years, many companies have turned their attention to the grain field and found it profitable. If you hoard a little now, you won't worry about not selling it later. And now the government's management is much looser than before. There is no doubt that this increase in wheat prices has speculative factors. " Dong Shuangwei said.

On the other hand, Zheng Fengtian, deputy dean of the School of Agriculture and Rural Development of China Renmin University, is worried. "There are too many acquisition entities now, which is likely to lead to the distortion of wheat production statistics this year. Therefore, how to prevent malicious competition of enterprises may be a big problem. " He said.

"In fact, the Ministry of Agriculture, the National Development and Reform Commission and other departments are paying close attention to the wheat purchase market. If wheat prices continue to rise in the middle and late July, it is likely that more stringent measures will be introduced. " Tianqi Futures analyst Dong Jianye said in an interview with the reporter of China Sankei Shimbun.

For the trend of wheat prices in the market outlook, Dong Jianye and Dong Shuangwei think it is still strong. "The psychological price of farmers is 2.2 yuan/Jin. It is not impossible to realize this price in some areas. However, it is unlikely to appear nationwide. " Dong Jianye said. Dong Shuangwei's advice to fellow villagers is to wait, even if it can't sell to the highest point, it can find a more suitable price.
