Drought-breaking rains and an excellent growing season in eastern Australia is expected to result in a sharp rebound in grain production, with Australian wheat production in MY 2020/21 forecast...

Following a multi-year drought in eastern Australia, much improved seasonal conditions and rainfall in the first half of 2020 have set the scene for a sharp increase in wheat production.

Beneficial and widespread rainfall in early 2020 has increased prospects for a good start to the Australian grain sowing season.

Australia’s wheat harvest in MY 2019/20 is estimated to have been the smallest in over a decade, and about 40 percent below the 10-year average.
