EU: Malting barley prices slightly down in the UK, unchanged in Scandinavia and France
Malting barley prices came a bit down in the UK whereas Scandinavian and French values remained more or less unchanged during the week, GrainCom analysts reported in their latest newsletter on November 9.
Winter barley in France makes good progress finally; opinions about final planted area and what the late plantings mean for the selection rate of malting barley differ a lot.
GrainComs forecast of final area is that it will not so much down as expected some weeks ago, the analysts said.
