# Victorian tour puts wheat, barley yields above ABARES’: GIAV - Grain Central

> The Grain Industry Association of Victoria estimates Victorian barley yields at 3.32 t/ha and wheat at 2.31 t/ha from its October crop tour. These estimates sit above ABARES' September forecasts, although GIAV warned that frost and heat in southern areas could reduce them.

## Why it matters

Yield estimates above official forecasts are mildly bearish for Australian wheat and barley, partly offsetting the drought-driven shortfall elsewhere in the country.
