• The harvest has started to ramp up this week before unfavourable weather, which arrived on Wednesday, brought things to a standstill.
• Wheat prices eased somewhat this week as international market prices remain steady and the domestic market processes a potential access issues to China.
• Barley prices have decreased slightly this week as harvest pressure starts to mount.
• Canola prices are still elevated due to the overall strong oilseed complex. As the harvest is only just starting, there is not any significant selling pressure at the moment.
