Australia's agriculture department forecasts 15 to 100 millimetres of rain for Queensland and northern New South Wales between 12 and 19 November, with 5 to 25 millimetres in southern New South Wales and 10 to 50 millimetres in Western Australian cropping areas. The update says the rain improves summer planting prospects but does not yet justify a higher national production forecast.
Better moisture for summer crop planting in eastern Australia eases some supply concern tied to El Niño, which typically brings drier conditions there. The lack of a production upgrade keeps the price impact limited.
