Redemption prices below cost of production again this year

The article discusses the ongoing wheat harvest in Slovenia, specifically in the Pomurje region, which has just begun. The harvest of barley has already concluded, with farmers reporting earlier starts due to favorable conditions. Boštjan Ferenčak, a agricultural advisor, notes variations in yields between regions influenced by soil quality and technology. He mentions that while the quality of barley this year is good, dry weather reduced disease issues. The wheat harvest is expected to conclude by mid-July if there are no major weather disruptions. Production prices for wheat range between 280 and 290 euros per ton, while market prices are slightly above 200 euros per ton. Farmers expect purchase prices to be between 180 and 195 euros per ton. Ferenčak also comments on the need for rain for other crops like corn, soybeans, oilseed rape, sunflowers, and grasses, as heat and drought could worsen their condition.
