Wheat is one of the most important crops produced in Australia. In financial year 2024, the yield of this winter crop was estimated at *** metric tons per hectare, a notable year-on-year decrease. According to the source, the yield was forecast to increase in 2025. The role of wheat Wheat is grown primarily in Western Australia, New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, and South Australia. Production of wheat in the country has recovered recently, despite a decline in 2024. Both bread wheat and durum wheat are used to produce wheat-based food consumed within the country. Wheat is Australia’s second-largest agriculture export commodity and one of its highest value crops. Most of the wheat produced in Australia was exported to countries within Asia and the Middle East. Challenges to growth Drought has impacted grain production across the country, with the area of land for wheat production dropping to a low in 2020. In 2019, the country imported wheat for the domestic market for the first time in 12 years. This raised biosecurity concerns among grain growers, who were worried about the potential for new weeds or diseases to be introduced. However, a shortfall in high-protein wheat can negatively impact domestic dairy farmers, who require bulk grain for their livestock. Nevertheless, the area for wheat production has since recovered.

Operators in the Grain Storage industry have benefited from strong growth in grain production volumes in recent years. The industry is characterised by extreme revenue volatility, which creates difficult conditions for operators. Shifting wheat prices, movements in the Australian dollar and fluctuating grain production due to changing rainfall have influenced industry demand and earnings. Record national grain harvest over three consecutive years through 2022-23 has significantly boosted demand for grain storage. Grain storage companies have capitalised on record production volumes by quickly expanding storage capacity. As a result, industry-wide revenue has been growing at an average annualised 3.8% over the past five years and is expected to total $3.5 billion in 2023-24, when revenue will fall by an estimated 22.8%. An anticipated decline in crop production is expected to contribute to industry revenue declining in the current year. A large portion of stored grains is destined for export markets, as grains are typically stored while waiting for shipment. Grain growers typically attempt to increase the volume of exported grains when prices rise, negatively affecting demand for grain storage services. World wheat prices can significantly influence the industry's performance, as wheat accounts for the largest portion of grain stored. World wheat prices have surged in recent years, primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine conflict constraining the global grain supply. While high wheat prices typically encourage firms to reduce the time grains spend in storage, port congestions and extreme production volumes have led to operators filling up storage facilities, supporting profitability growth. Total grain production volumes are on track to fall over the coming years, contributing to industry revenue declines. However, this forecast is based on average weather patterns. While they are difficult to forecast, adverse weather conditions or natural disasters could negatively influence industry performance over the coming years as production volumes may be diminished. Overall, industry revenue is forecast to fall at an annualised 2.3% over the five years through 2028-29 to total $3.1 billion.

Grain is one of Australia's most valuable agricultural products. Operators in the Cereal Grain Wholesaling industry play a major role in distributing grain from farmers to domestic and international end markets. Revenue is expected to increase at an annualised 6.8% over the five years through 2023-24 to an estimated $31.6 billion. This trend includes an expected decline of 27.9%% in 2023-24 as rainfall is likely to plummet. In response to volatile production volumes, profitability is expected to fluctuate over the five years through 2023-24. However, improved downstream demand and record-high prices have allowed many wholesaling services to grow their profit margins in 2023-24, boosting profitability over the past five years.Revenue is highly volatile for cereal grain wholesalers. The supply of cereal grains from the Grain Growing industry is the most important factor affecting wholesalers' revenue. Grain production depends on annual rainfall, so natural disasters such as floods, cyclones and bushfires can severely affect grain output and wholesalers' revenue. Following a bumper crop in 2016-17, wheat prices fell strongly over the three years through 2019-20 due to unfavourable domestic weather conditions and a global grain surplus. However, favourable growing conditions have contributed to back-to-back bumper crops over the three years through 2022-23. This trend has significantly increased the volume of grain distributed by wholesalers, both domestically and internationally. In addition, the Russia-Ukraine conflict has distorted the global grain trade, sharply boosting demand for Australian grain. This has contributed to record-high prices for commodities like wheat and oilseeds.Demand for grain is projected to fall over the five years to 2028-29 as global grain supply recovers from the major distortions in 2023-24. Revenue is projected to decline slightly from a high base in 2023-24 as weather conditions will likely continue to be volatile. The Australian dollar is projected to appreciate, dampening demand for Australian grain among overseas buyers. However, these declines are likely offset by growing export capacity, supporting continued exports sales. Overall, revenue is forecast to decline at an annualised 1.3% over the five years through 2028-29, to an estimated $29.5 billion.

Overview The September edition of Agricultural commodities contains ABARES latest outlook for Australia's key agricultural commodities in 2018-19, which updates the outlook released in June 2018. Key…Show full descriptionOverview The September edition of Agricultural commodities contains ABARES latest outlook for Australia's key agricultural commodities in 2018-19, which updates the outlook released in June 2018. Key Issues • In 2018-19 the value of farm production is forecast to be relatively unchanged at $60 billion. • Dry conditions are affecting agricultural production in eastern Australia, but strong forecast production in Western Australia, rising grain prices, high livestock prices and a lower Australian dollar are providing support to farm incomes. • Export prices are forecast to increase by around 3% in 2018-19, driven by a decline in the global supply of grains and strong demand for meat products. • Downside risks to Australian agriculture include uncertainty around the duration of the drought in impacted areas, the timing and amount of rain in other regions, and possible disruption to world agricultural markets stemming from protectionist trade measures. Commodity production forecasts • The value of crop production is forecast to decrease by 3 per cent to $30 billion in 2018-19. ◦ The decline is expected to be driven by a forecast decline in area planted in the eastern states. Drought conditions across eastern Australia restricted planting opportunities for crops, such as barley, canola and wheat. ◦ Higher forecast prices for canola, coarse grains, cotton and wheat are expected to mitigate the impact of lower crop volumes on the value of production. ◦ Wine grape and sugar production are forecast to rise as producing areas have been less affected by drought. The value of sugar production is nevertheless forecast to decline due to weak international prices. ◦ Horticultural production has increased following a warm winter, boosting production of a range of fruits and vegetables • The value of livestock production is forecast to increase by 2 per cent to $30 billion in 2018-19. ◦ Drought in the eastern states has increased cattle and sheep turn-off, lifting meat production and leading to a forecast reduction in herd size. ◦ Dairy production is forecast to increase, as processors continue to offer relatively high milk prices. However, the production response is likely to be dampened by increasing feed and fodder costs. ◦ Wool production is forecast to be lower, constrained by lower flock numbers and poor grazing conditions. Commodity export forecasts • Export earnings for farm commodities are forecast to be $47 billion in 2018-19, down 5 per cent from $49 billion in 2017-18 • The decline in export earnings is largely due to lower exportable supplies of canola, coarse grains, pulses and wheat and increased domestic demand for grain. Agricultural export prices, measured by the index of unit export returns, are forecast to increase by 3% in 2018-19. ◦ Export earnings are forecast to decline in 2018-19 for canola (down 39 per cent), coarse grains (24 per cent), wheat (10 per cent), sugar (9 per cent), wool (2 per cent) and wine (1 per cent). Export earnings for beef and veal and live feeder/slaughter cattle are unchanged. • Export earnings are forecast to be supported by strong demand from Asia and advanced economies for Australian livestock and livestock products. Higher prices for wheat, coarse grains and cotton are also expected to support earnings. ◦ In 2018-19 export earnings are forecast to rise for lamb (up 17 per cent), rice (14 per cent), mutton (13 per cent), cotton (9 per cent), cheese (6 per cent) and rock lobster (3 per cent). • Export earnings for fisheries products are forecast to increase by 2 per cent in 2018-19 to $1.6 billion, after increasing by an estimated 10 per cent in 2017-18. Assumptions underlying this set of commodity forecasts Forecasts of commodity production and exports are based on global and domestic demand and supply assumptions. • On the demand side, stronger world economic growth will translate to higher per person incomes in most of Australia's export markets, supporting stronger demand. ◦ World economic growth is assumed to be 3.9 per cent in 2018 and 2019. ◦ Economic growth in Australia is assumed to be 3.0 per cent in 2018-19. ◦ The Australian dollar is assumed to average US74 cents in 2018-19, lower than the assumed average of US78 cents in 2017-18. • On the supply side, Australian agricultural production prospects are assumed to be below average. ◦ Dry conditions are forecast to have significant implications for crop yields and livestock production cycles in the eastern states. Uncertainties that could affect agricultural commodity production and export growth include supply shocks in Australia or international markets (such as natural disasters, drought and disease outbreaks) or unexpected economic events that affect trade and economic growth. Boxes on agricultural issues Evolving EU biodiesel policies • Proposed changes to the EU renewable fuels policy could increase demand for Australia's canola exports in the short to medium term. • Since 2010-11 the European Union has been the largest export market for Australian canola. Most canola is imported to produce renewable transport fuel.
