A USDA FAS July report forecasts Australia's 2017-18 wheat crop at 22 million tonnes, versus a 35 million tonne record in 2016-17. Barley is seen at 7.5 million tonnes and sorghum rebounding to 1.9 million tonnes, with dry conditions expected to persist through September.
A sharp Australian wheat and barley shortfall tightens export supplies, supporting global feed grain prices and boosting demand for alternative feed grains like sorghum.
After 769 past bullish report events, Wheat (SRW) moved a median +0.2% over 5 sessions (53% higher; middle half -1.4% to +2.0%), and +0.2% over 20.
