International

Iraq put its hand up for 400,000t after wheat’s limit-up move on Friday. Romania ports are loading boats and can theoretically sell wheat, but the shipping premium would be impressive

Australia

Local markets rounded the week out stronger. Wheat values rose over A$25-30/t over the week, and barley gained $30-35/t.  Canola markets along the east coast and in South Australia went from strength to strength, and SA values hit $1000/t.

The east coast continues to get smashed with heavy rainfall which is bringing more supply chain disruptions at some ports and up-country sites.
