There is growing concern about the threat posed by rising wheat prices to the food manufacture and agricultural industries.
Fresh from another surge in prices last week, there is concern that increases could grow even more.
Droughts and wet weather in different parts of America, combined with other climate threats to crops in China and Russia are making for another uncomfortable period for the industry.
Investors are closely eyeing the behaviour of some of the world's biggest commodities traders to see how badly the market will be affected.
Glencore International underlined how severely last year's Russian export ban hit the market.
The company stated "We had to buy more expensive wheat from elsewhere to meet that obligation.
"The export ban did not particularly help our business."
In order to avoid a similar issue with crops in Europe this season, many experts are no doubt crossing their fingers for some rainfall in the near future, to revitalise wheat crop prospects.
