What could change it?

Bread combines grain commodity costs, regional crop conditions, energy and currency; the raw grain is only part of the shelf price.

Scores can reverse when commodity momentum, local weather, crop conditions, currency, logistics or inflation signals change. The model estimates directional pressure rather than an exact shelf price.
