An RBA bulletin uses a dynamic factor model to split recent commodity price moves into supply-driven and demand-driven components. It notes that commodities make up two-thirds of Australia's export value, and that the source of a price move determines how export volumes respond.
The analysis helps distinguish whether commodity price rallies reflect durable global demand or temporary supply disruption, which matters for how long feed-grain price moves last. It is a research framework rather than a new price event.
