  • Wheat Prices Surge to New Highs Amid Planting Delays and Export Gains
    April 29, 2026, 4:42 AM EDT. Wheat futures across major U.S. exchanges surged 13 to 25 cents on Tuesday, driven by slower-than-normal spring wheat planting. U.S. spring wheat planting reached 19%, trailing the five-year average by 3 points, with Minnesota and North Dakota notably behind pace. Winter wheat showed mixed conditions with some states improving and others declining, impacting the Brugler500 crop condition index. European Union soft wheat exports rose by 1.18 million metric tons year-on-year. May and July contracts for Chicago, Kansas City, and Minneapolis wheat all gained, reflecting market concerns over supply and growing conditions. The rally highlights the ongoing pressures on global wheat supply amid weather challenges and export demand.
