Grain Industry Association of Western Australia's final report put the 2018-19 harvest at 17.9 million tonnes, worth almost $7 billion and the state's most valuable crop. Strong demand from drought-hit eastern Australia drove record profits, and the state's main grain handler built 1.1 million tonnes of emergency storage.
Strong eastern demand and a large WA harvest shape Australian export flows and wheat, barley and oat pricing for feed buyers in Asia.
