GrainCorp says feedlot demand in Queensland and NSW is consuming eastern Australia's large on-farm grain stocks faster than expected. Eastern wheat and barley prices are almost $100 a tonne above WA values, and the market may turn to Western Australia for supply.
GrainCorp's six-month net profit fell to $5 million amid a global grain glut.
Strong domestic feed demand and concern over dry northern crops are tightening eastern Australian grain, which supports local feed prices and may pull WA grain east.
