Starch makers forced to adapt after poor wheat crop in FRANCE

(Reuters) "PARIS, Sept 26 (Reuters) - A sharp fall in the quality of France's wheat crop due to excess rain will lead to additional costs for starch makers just as the industry is still suffering from low demand and increasing competition from imports, they said on Thursday.
 
Starch and its derivatives, made from wheat, maize, potatoes and tapioca, are used in products from ice cream to cosmetics, paints, pills and cardboard due to their sweetening, thickening and texturizing properties."

Global rice prices drop after India allows white rice exports

(Reuters) "MUMBAI/HANOI, Sept 30 (Reuters) - Global rice prices fell on Monday after India, the world's No.1 exporter of the grain, gave the go-ahead for exports to resume, boosting global supply and helping poor Asian and African buyers secure more affordable supplies, exporters said.
 
India on Saturday allowed exports of non-basmati white rice. That came a day after New Delhi cut export duty on parboiled rice to 10%, buoyed by a new crop in the offing and higher inventories in state warehouses."

FRENCH millers face long grind as rain-hit wheat harvest comes in

(Reuters) "PARIS, Sept 18 (Reuters) - Flour mills in France are facing higher costs and a long search for grain as they feel the effects of a dire wheat harvest, the country's milling industry association said.
Heavy rain and below-normal sunshine during the growing season led to a soft wheat crop with the smallest volume since the 1980s and poor readings for test weights, an important measure of milling quality.
Just 28% of the crop was showing test weights - which determine the amount of flour extracted from wheat - meeting the usual standard of 76 kilos per hectolitre, farm office FranceAgriMer said on Wednesday."

IRAQ set to pay high price for bumper wheat harvest

(Reuters) "DUBAI/NAJAF, Iraq, Oct 10 (Reuters) - A bumper harvest and a hefty grain surplus in Iraq, typically one of the Middle East's biggest wheat importers, has left the government with the prospect of a net loss of nearly half a billion dollars, according to Reuters calculations.

The 1.5 million metric ton wheat surplus, helped by better than expected rains but above all by government subsidies, is excellent news for farmers.
For the government, however, which pays them more than double the global market price to encourage cultivation of the food staple in often arid conditions, the price is high."
