THE GrainCorp network has recorded its biggest day of receivals for the season, with more than 300,000 tonnes of grain delivered on December 18, GrainCorp said in its last weekly Harvest Update for 2022 released today.
The eastern-states bulk handler said winter-crop harvest activity was now mostly complete in Queensland, and slowing around the Burren Junction, Moree and Narrabri regions in northern NSW, as growers turn their attention to summer-cropping opportunities.
Clear and drier weather conditions saw strong harvest activity continue throughout NSW and Victoria, particularly in the Junee, Temora and Wyalong regions in southern NSW, and in the Wimmera, Mallee, Swan Hill and north-east regions of Victoria.
Harvest in NSW and Victoria harvest will continue into January 2023, and a large outload program has continued across the GrainCorp network to create capacity for more receivals, with up to 240,000t of grain outloaded each week.
| Week to Dec 19 | Harvest to Dec 19 | |
| Queensland | 26,670 | 2,109,600 |
| New South Wales | 747,190 | 3,694,980 |
| Victoria | 484,260 | 1,871,540 |
| TOTAL TONNES | 1,258,120 | 7,676,120 |
GrainCorp will resume publication of its Harvest Updates on January 3.
