2018 Crop UK Export Quality

Milling Wheat

The 2018 harvest experienced an exceptionally high wheat crop quality with 56% of all samples exceeding 80 Kg/HL and most of the samples between 78 – 82 Kg/HL. Due to higher specific weight, protein content in UKP and UKS milling wheat grades has been slightly lower than last year. Given the sunny growing conditions, quality of the protein has been very high, bringing the grades closer to buyer specification. Falling number (Hagberg) results have proved outstanding with over half of the samples reaching 350 seconds and many exceeding 400. Pass rates for milling wheat during Harvest 2018 has been one of the highest on record. Cargos will be available in standard UKP and UKS as well as premium quality Group 1 categories.
