Notes:

Change in price is the change since the last report. Prices are estimates based on delivery to dairy farms with allowance for freight, storage, and marketing costs, but exclusive of GST. Wheat prices are for the relevant stockfeed wheat available in a region (ASW, AGP, SFW1 or FED1) and F1 for barley.

The grain report has been commissioned by Dairy Australia to provide an independent and timely assessment of grain markets in each dairy region. This report is created using data provided by Profarmer Consulting. It should be remembered that actual prices may vary for quality or other reasons. Whilst all reasonable steps have been taken to ensure the accuracy of the information contained in this report, Dairy Australia disclaims all liability to the fullest extent permitted by Australian law for any inadvertent errors and for any losses or damages stemming from reliance upon its content. Dairy Australia recommends all persons seek independent advice and, where appropriate, advice from a qualified advisor before making any decisions about changes to business strategy.

Commentary

Wheat: Steady ($405 to $415/tonne). Barley: Up $5 ($350 to $360/tonne). Maize: Steady ($350 to $360/tonne). Sorghum: Down $5 ($310 to $320/tonne).
Rainfall has been favourable for the summer crop areas, however, could be a detriment to winter crops currently being harvested.
Delivered wheat bids were softer over the past week while track prices have firmed. Early harvested wheat is being purchased by nearby feedlots.
Barley values were steady to slightly firmer over the past week. Wet weather and harvest delays across New South Wales may build demand across Queensland feed markets.
The old crop sorghum market is winding down with domestic users now covered. Domestic user interest for new crop also remains limited.
