# China pushes barley decision back one month | Stock Journal | SA

> China postponed its decision on removing the prohibitive tariff on Australian barley by one month, to August 11, after requesting more input from interested parties. South Australian new-crop barley held steady at A$300/t. Russia's exit from the Black Sea grain corridor and attacks on Ukrainian grain warehouses and Danube ports also support prices, while US corn futures had fallen sharply from June highs before rebounding.

Delay in Chinese tariff relief keeps Australian barley export demand uncertain, while Black Sea disruption and weather support global feed grain prices.
