CommodityScope Assessment Basis
This is the CommodityScope series definition for the published midpoint and assessment range. Characteristics that are not part of this basis are not inferred.
- Product
- Wheat 12.5%
- Product quality
- Product as labelled by the series name and location basis. CommodityScope does not infer a fuller chemical or contractual specification.
- Location basis
- FOB Russia, 30,000+ mt
- Parcel basis
- Typical export cargo as transacted on the stated port basis. CommodityScope does not fix a standard parcel tonnage.
- Delivery / loading period
- Not fixed in the published series basis.
- Assessment window
- CommodityScope weekly assessment dated as of the published assessment date.
- Currency / unit
- USD/mt
- Normalization
- Inputs used for the midpoint and the assessment range are considered only after they can be expressed on this series basis and unit. Cross-unit values are not converted on the public site and are not mixed into this series.
Specification · stated in the assessment basis
- Minimum 12.5% protein — stated in the series name.
- Lot size 30,000+ mt — stated in the basis.
Basis: FOB Russia, 30,000+ mt
- FOB Russia, 30,000+ mt lots: deep-water Black Sea loadings; smaller coaster lots are a different market and are not on this page.
- Weekly assessment — the change shown compares two weekly readings.
- FOB (free on board): the price covers the product loaded on the vessel at the named origin; sea freight and insurance to the destination are excluded, so FOB values from different loading areas are not delivered-cost equivalents.
- Russian grain loads mainly from deep-water Black Sea ports (Novorossiysk, Taman, Tuapse) and from shallow-water Azov ports for coaster lots.
Unit: USD/mt
- All grain and feed series are USD per metric tonne on the stated port basis.
- Weekly assessments: the change shown is between two weekly readings, never a daily move.
