Australian wheat exports are expected to fall precipitously 4.5 million tons
from last year to the lowest level in 13 years due to poor production resulting
from drought. Because of low exportable supplies, Australia will undoubtedly
focus its attention on major importers. It will try to maintain a strong
presence in Japan, South Korea, Indonesia, and Malaysia, as well as attempt to
recapture the Iraqi market. Nonetheless, it will not be able to satisfy demand
for many traditional buyers in Asia, the Middle East, and the Mediterranean.
Major grain suppliers such as the United States, Russia, and Kazakhstan will
have the opportunity to increase their market shares in these regions.
Other grain exports are expected to be low as well. Barley is projected to
remain at a low level for the second year in a row at 2.3 million tons. Sorghum
and oats are to drop to 13-year lows because of strong demand from the domestic
feed industry. Rice is estimated to plunge to a 46-year low to 40,000 tons.
