Australian farmers are expected to plant a record 23.83 million hectares this winter, up 1% on last year, according to Rabobank's winter crop outlook. Wheat plantings are up 1.4% and canola is up sharply.

After 1,006 past bearish report events, WHEAT moved a median +0.0% over 5 sessions (50% higher; middle half -1.6% to +1.8%), and +0.3% over 20.
