  • Wheat Prices Close Mixed Ahead of Southern Plains Rains
    May 19, 2026, 8:54 PM EDT. Wheat futures ended mixed Tuesday with Chicago Soft Red Winter (SRW) wheat up by around 2-3 cents, Kansas City Hard Red Winter (HRW) steady, and Minneapolis spring wheat down by up to 6.75 cents. Winter wheat crop progress shows 71% headed, 13 points ahead of average, but condition ratings fell to 27% good/excellent. The Brugler500 crop health index declined notably in major HRW states including Kansas and Colorado, while Soft Red Winter states edged higher. Rain expected in the Southern Plains may delay harvest but is too late to aid much of the crop. Brazil's soybean area growth is projected at the smallest in 20 years, pressured by tight margins and rising fertilizer costs.
