> Rain across most NSW cropping areas in late June has raised expectations of back-to-back bumper winter harvests in Australia. ABARES forecasts the 2021 wheat crop at 27.8 million tonnes, while some analysts tip more than 30 million. Nearby grain prices are steady but October forward prices have softened.
