EASTERN Australian bulk handler GrainCorp has received 10.98 million tonnes (Mt) of grain in the 2022-23, it said in its final Harvest Update for the season released today.
“The New South Wales harvest is mostly complete, with some southern growers still delivering across the Wyalong, Temora and Cunningar regions,” GrainCorp said in the update.
“Victorian growers are still delivering grain into sites across the Wimmera, Geelong and Western District regions of the state, which are expected to remain active into February.”
The large outload program continues across the GrainCorp network with 280,000t of grain outloaded over the past week.
“With harvest complete in Queensland, growers are looking ahead to summer-cropping opportunities.
“There’s strong soil moisture in most areas which should support crop prospects.”
