A USDA attaché report from Canberra puts Australia's 2022/23 wheat crop at a record 37 million metric tons, with barley at 13.5 MMT and wheat exports at a record 28 MMT. Sorghum is seen at 2.9 MMT and rice output was cut sharply by excess rain before planting.
The larger-than-official wheat estimate and export forecast add to global wheat supply, which is bearish for wheat, while the rice production cut is supportive for rice buyers.
After 1,006 past bearish report events, Wheat (SRW) moved a median +0.0% over 5 sessions (50% higher; middle half -1.6% to +1.8%), and +0.3% over 20.
Not enough comparable past events yet for a historical read.
After 88 past bullish report events, Rough Rice moved a median +0.0% over 5 sessions (50% higher; middle half -1.5% to +2.1%), and +2.5% over 20.
Moves of each commodity's benchmark from the last close before the event. Historical reads pool past events of the same kind; they describe what happened, not what will. Not investment advice.
