Western Australia is poised for a surprisingly large wheat crop, with projections indicating a harvest of 10.33 million tons for the 2024/25 season, marking the third-largest on record. Despite a dry start to the season and concerns about low rainfall affecting yield, unexpected increases in crop outputs have emerged. This comes amid escalating global tensions, particularly the war in Ukraine, which could impact wheat shipments from the Black Sea. However, heavy rains this week have delayed harvesting progress.
