Western Australian grain production for 2019/20 is estimated at about 11.2 million tonnes, versus 17.5 million last year, after drought, spring dryness and frost. Wheat is forecast at 5.58 million tonnes, nearly half last year's volume, and barley at 3.98 million tonnes.
A sharply smaller WA crop removes a major export source for wheat and barley, supporting prices and pushing buyers toward other origins.
After 1,072 past bullish weather events, Wheat (SRW) moved a median +0.2% over 5 sessions (55% higher; middle half -1.4% to +2.3%), and +0.3% over 20.
