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 ($485 to $495/tonne). Barley: Steady ($465 to $475/tonne). Maize: Steady ($465 to $475/tonne). Canola Meal: Up $5 ($645 to $655/tonne).
There have been no significant weather events over the past week, with reasonably mild conditions and small amounts of rain.
Wheat values were stable on last week, despite further offshore futures market weakness, so basis continues to push the boundaries toward the upside.
Barley bids were mostly steady to slightly higher on last week. New crop prices remain very firm with continued slow grower selling.
Lentils markets have exploded higher over the last couple of weeks.
