# USDA FAS forecasts Australian barley exports at 3.8Mt - Grain Central

> USDA FAS forecasts Australian barley exports for 2020-21 at 3.8Mt, up from 3.2Mt, with new-crop production at 9.8Mt. China's five-year 80.5% tariff on Australian barley is expected to shift more supply into feed use.

## Why it matters

Higher Australian barley exports and feed use add to world feed barley supply, but China's tariff limits its demand, which is bearish for barley prices.
