Winter Crop Conditions in Australia
Wheat & Barley
★ After early August/September rains, yield prospects are stable to improving.
★ Prices remain soft due to low demand.
~~~~~~~~
Lentils
★ Good rains in South Australia and Victoria have improved crop conditions.
★ This week prices/bids declined due to good crop outlook and lower demand from India.
★ Further rain is expected in South Australia, while crop conditions in Victoria have improved significantly.
~~~~~~~~
Chickpeas
★ Crops are in very good condition, supported by follow-up rains.
★ Harvest in New South Wales and southern Queensland is expected to be delayed by about two weeks.
★ Warm and mostly dry weather in Queensland should help crops fill pods and mature. Early-sown crops in Central Queensland have already started harvest.
★ Like lentils, chickpea prices are weak due to low demand from India.
