France: Malting barley prices decline under the pressure from other cereals

French malting barley prices are being influenced by the other cereals and are declining, La Depeche reported on August 25.

The demand is not overwhelming neither for export, nor for domestic sales.

According to a report by FranceAgriMer, the protein content in winter barley in the northern regions of France is between 9.5 and 10% with good to very good grain size. For spring barley, the grain calibration is rather good, it is reported.
