USDA attache projects Australia 2024/25 wheat crop at 25.8 million T
Following are selected highlights from a report issued on Wednesday by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS) post in Canberra:
“A tale of two is emerging for wheat and barley growers in Australia. Those in the eastern states have entered the MY (marketing year) 2024/25 planting season with good soil moisture and a particularly good fall break with widespread rains in the first week of April. Growers in Western Australia and South Australia have low soil moisture and are yet to receive any meaningful fall rains, with little expectation of rain in the coming weeks…. FAS/Canberra forecasts a decline in wheat planted area and yields to dip below average, with production at 25.8 million metric tons (MMT), 3% below the previous 10-year average production.”
