Agriculture Insights: Back from the fields… Ukraine corn crop tour

Given the current conflict in Ukraine, the country’s ability to maintain its corn production has been in question. This is crucial for the global corn supply/demand balance as the country typically is a leading producer and exporter. Will Ukraine’s corn production fall significantly? Has the conflict impacted planted and harvested areas? What can we expect for the 2022-23 marketing year?

In this Agriculture Insights podcast Argus’ Global Editorial Manager for Agriculture Jade Delafraye is joined by Senior Grains Analyst Alexey Yeromin, to discuss Ukraine’s corn crop conditions and the findings from the Agritel crop survey organised in the last week of August.

Acompañe a Josh Vence, gerente de desarrollo de negocios para América Latina de Argus, y Sergio Meana, corresponsal senior en México para Argus Media, y entérese del nuevo clima político y financiero para el amplio mercado de combustibles en México.

The Crude Report: Alaskan oil prices rise on Russian supply halt

Alaskan North Slope (ANS) crude assessments against Ice Brent have climbed to a record-high on stronger refinery margins at the US west coast and a halt in Russian crude imports. 

ANS for delivery to the US west coast in October has been selling at a $6.75/bl premium to CMA Ice Brent, the highest premium against the basis since the Argus assessment was launched in January 2018. The US west coast premium for ANS is up by over $6/bl from a year ago as demand for transportation fuels rebounds from Covid-19 pandemic lows and competing Russian crude supply is banned from US west coast refiners.
