Minneapolis hard red spring (HRS) wheat on the MIAX exchange fell by $0.20 per bu to $7.45 per bu, while Euronext milling wheat futures fell by €3.25 per tonne to €249.75 ($285.08) per tonne.\nDiplomatic progress in the Black Sea region\nHopes for diplomatic progress to end the war between Russia and Ukraine are putting pressure on prices, given the possibility that a potential agreement could once again facilitate grain shipments from the Black Sea. Reports confirmed that US envoys will visit Moscow and Kyiv this weekend to discuss potential peace efforts between both countries. The prospect of renewed diplomatic negotiations pressured prices down by reducing part of the geopolitical risk premium previously embedded in grain markets.\nWheat futures extended losses for a second consecutive session, with selling pressure evident across all three major US exchanges as well as Euronext. The decline was also fueled by profit-taking after prices reached multi-year highs over the past two weeks, while traders reduced risk exposure ahead of the three day weekend, with US exchanges set to remain closed on Monday September 7.\nIn the front news, Moscow approved the suspension of export duties on wheat, barley and corn through the end of 2026, reducing costs for exporters and improving the economics of alternative export routes. However, persistent rail bottlenecks and limited port capacity continue to restrict shipment volumes, keeping global supply concerns in focus.\nAustralian grain markets were largely inactive, with few fresh indications reported and participants showing limited appetite to chase prices in either direction. With no major developments affecting local supply and demand fundamentals, exporters and end users remained on the sidelines, resulting in a quiet session and little change to prevailing values.\nFOB Australia APW 10.5% wheat was unchanged at $309 per tonne for October loading and $310 per tonne for November loading, while FOB Australia ASW 9.5% wheat remained steady at $304 per tonne for both October and November loadings.\nIn Russia, on a coaster basis, a seller offered 12.5% wheat at $330 per tonne CIF Beirut for September October.\nOn a handy basis, a seller offered 12.5% Russian wheat at $321 per tonne CIF Egypt for October, while 30,000 tonnes was offered at $280 per tonne FOB Ust-Luga for September 20-30.\nIn Ukraine, a buyer indicated 11.5% wheat at $215 per tonne CIF Braila, while sellers were at $257 per tonne DAP Constanta for September-October and buyers at $250-252 per tonne. Sellers were heard at $300 per tonne CIF Marmara for September-October and $312 per tonne for October-November.\nFor wheat into Egypt, sellers were heard at $315 per tonne CIF for 11.5% wheat for September, while buyers were at $300 per tonne. Sellers were also heard at $315 per tonne CIF EastMed for October-November and $305 per tonne. Feed wheat was offered at $292 per tonne CIF Israel for September-October.\nIn the EU Black Sea region, 12.5% milling wheat offers on an FOB Constanta were reported at €15 per tonne above the December Euronext wheat contract.\nFor 11.5% milling wheat, offers were indicated at €0-10 per tonne against the December Euronext wheat contract, FOB Constanta-Varna-Burgas (CVB).\nFor feed wheat, bids were reported at €15-18 per tonne below the December Euronext wheat contract, FOB CVB.\nEuropean wheat markets\nEuropean wheat markets were relatively quiet, with limited fresh business reported as participants remained cautious following recent volatility in futures markets.\nAttention remained on developments in the Black Sea region after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said US negotiators are expected to visit Kyiv and Moscow in the coming days, although market participants see little prospect of any immediate breakthrough.\nWhile recent comments from Russian President Vladimir Putin have been viewed as slightly more constructive toward a potential peace agreement, expectations for meaningful progress on the war or Black Sea shipping flows remain limited.\nPhysical market activity was subdued, although some German feed barley business was heard around €21 per tonne below December MATIF futures, while wheat liquidity remained thin across key export origins.\nFrench 11% protein wheat premium was assessed at a discount of €1 per tonne to the December Euronext wheat contract for October loading.\nPolish 12.5% wheat cargo premiums were assessed at a premium of  €1 per tonne to the December Euronext wheat contract for October loading.\nBaltic FOB 12.5% wheat cargo premiums were assessed at a premium of €2 per tonne to the December Euronext wheat contract for October loading.\nThe wheat 12.5% FOB Germany Premium APM for October loading was assessed at €4 per tonne above the December Euronext contract due to a lack of fresh indications. No data was excluded.The wheat 11.5%, fob Germany premium APM for October loading was assessed at parity with the December Euronext contract due to a lack of fresh indications. No data was excluded.\nUS wheat FOB export values were assessed steady on September 4, broadly in line with levels reported earlier this week amid limited changes in markets.\nThe wheat 11% FOB US Gulf HRW premium was unchanged, with October at $1.45 per bu over the December Kansas HRW futures contract and November at $1.55 per bu over the same contract.\nThe wheat 10.5%, fob US Gulf SRW premium was also unchanged, with October at 95 cents per bu over the December Chicago SRW futures contract and November at 110 cents per bu over the same contract.\nThe wheat 10% FOB US Pacific Northwest SW market was steady, with October at $267 per tonne and November at $271 per tonne.\nWheat 13.5% FOB Canada CWRS Premium FOB Vancouver front-month was unchanged, with October at 125 cents per bu over the December MIAX futures contract and November at 110 cents per bu over the same contract, a decrease of $0.09 per bu day on day.\nDurum cash market activity remained steady.\nCanadian durum prices were steady, with wheat 14.5% FOB Vancouver 2CWAD at $285 per tonne, an increase of $5 per tonne day on day and wheat 14.5% FOB St Lawrence 2CWAD at $299 per tonne.\nFresh indications were disclosed for wheat 11.5% FOB Argentina in the Up River hub.
