In the countdown to planting wheatfrom the Rosario Stock Exchange they have already begun to make the first general analyzes of the campaign for the central region of the country.
Initially, big data marks that they would be 2 million fewer tons expectedcompared to the last campaign (7.8 million tons), represented on 160,000 fewer hectares (1.7 million hectares). However, from the Rosario entity, they also do not rule out that the surface fall is more acute.

Among the great causes, wielded from the entity, are the persistence of Water deficit and the possibility of a new Niña; the loss of competitiveness of wheat against other crops and the exaggerated rise in costs, especially in fertilizers.
One of the low points of the campaign, according to the Stock Market, It will be the technological level, which will be much lower than what was being adopted. “The nutrition of the crop will go down in quality”, say the technical advisers who refer to the entity.
NUTRITION
As far as nitrogen fertilization is concerned, there is one of the concerns that compromises the potential yield of the crop. “It had been adjusting to the real needs of soils and crops and this new cycle could go back to values that were not seen in recent years,” it is exposed.
In this campaign, the dose will not be enough to cover the requirements and obtain the potential of the crop. Under current circumstances, it is estimated that the average dose of urea fertilization can fall by 20%, leaving a potential wheat of 10 quintals per hectare.
🌾Wheat is trading with rising prices in Chicago and Kansas. The continuation of the war in Ukraine and the lack of moisture in winter wheat producing areas in the US, such as west-central Kansas, are the main bullish fundamentals for fine grain.
