# Barley trades sideways without China despite falling global grain prices | Stock Journal | SA

> South Australian barley prices have traded mostly sideways over recent weeks despite falling global grain prices, with basis improving as grower selling stayed light. China remains absent from the Australian barley market, and the duties on barley remain under a WTO dispute, making normalisation a longer process.
