ABARES' June quarter report forecasts world wheat prices to rise in 2018-19 on lower production in major exporters, especially Russia, and expects world coarse grain prices to increase. Australian oilseed and sugar prices are expected to fall, with downward pressure from global oilseed output growth and uncertainty over Chinese tariffs on US imports.
Higher wheat and coarse grain price forecasts raise feed costs, while lower oilseed price expectations point to cheaper soybean and canola meal inputs for feed mills.
