Wheat prices surge toward biggest weekly gain in nearly two months as supply pressures intensify. Persistent weather risks and tightening fertilizer supplies, exacerbated by geopolitical tensions in Iran, are creating significant headwinds for global crop production. These supply constraints are pushing wheat higher as markets grapple with reduced availability and increased production costs. The combination of adverse weather patterns and fertilizer scarcity continues to cloud the crop supply outlook, supporting prices as investors reassess commodity fundamentals. Agricultural markets remain vulnerable to further volatility as geopolitical risks persist and weather uncertainty continues to weigh on planting and growing conditions worldwide.
