Aust view.

Saudi’s latest #barley tender produced strong results with 660kMT booked, significantly more than the 480kMT initially tendered for. Prices leapt over $40/mt since the Nov tender, with an average price of $277.65/mt CIF for Mar-Apr shipment. This should help support local prices!

Why don't they just come to Canada and buy it they have a direct link to producers through elevator system and ports besides they are their partners? What kind of a deal did Canadian Farmers get from them anyways?

Seems like barley acres are going to be at least last yrs levels. Seed growers are almost sold out of Synergy and most other varieties.
I’m struggling with seeding any. Grew Synergy in 2020, all went malt have some left but also grow durum. My pencil tells me I need $6 malt or feed compared to new crop $8 durum to consider growing barley. I made more growing durum them malt last yr net return.
Going to clean some Synergy see what my gut tells me before spring.

I'm just hoping they are building stocks up after the typhoons last summer and rebuilding their hog herds after ASF and not building strategic food reserves before other things.

Canada and Russia have moved to join Australia’s World Trade *Organisation dispute with China as third parties, raising concerns over the legal and global trade impacts of Beijing’s tariffs on Australian barley exports.

Despite major barley-producing nations benefiting from Australian farmers being frozen out of the Chinese market, they have formally requested to join WTO talks after Canberra launched action last month.

Canada, a key Five Eyes security partner that has experienced heightened tensions with China, told the WTO it had a “substantial trade interest” in the barley dispute. “Given the significant amount of trade in barley between Australia and China, China’s trade remedies measures could have *effects on global trade in barley more generally, including impacts on Canadian barley,” its government submission said.
