Gro's machine-learning model predicts Australia's 2023/24 wheat production will fall by double digits from last year. ABARES has forecast a 34% decline, partly due to an expected El Niño.
Gro's model does not yet include El Niño effects and shows past events had mixed impacts on Australian wheat.
Australia is a major wheat exporter, so a large crop shortfall would tighten supplies for importers such as Indonesia, Vietnam and China. The 34% ABARES forecast is a large downside risk for world wheat prices.
After 1,072 past bullish weather events, Wheat (SRW) moved a median +0.2% over 5 sessions (55% higher; middle half -1.4% to +2.3%), and +0.3% over 20.
