Australian June canola exports drop 55pc from May
AUSTRALIA exported 191,543 tonnes of canola in June, down 55 per cent from the 430,288t shipped in May, according to the latest export data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS).
Germany on 63,316t, followed by newcomer Pakistan on 49,625t and France on 25,000t were the three biggest markets for June-shipped canola as Australia’s export surplus dwindles ahead of new crop.
Shipping stems indicate Western Australia is the only Australian state left with enough canola to keep loading cargoes, and only handy-sized ones rather than the larger panamaxes.
Canada’s drought-reduced crop is now getting close to harvest as Europe’s oilseed crushers switch into processing their home-grown rapeseed.
Australian canola is expected to sell primarily into Asian and Middle East markets ahead of new crop, which will start to be shipped in volume in November, provided a wet spring does not delay harvest
