OCTOBER TO DECEMBER 2017 QUARTER

WHEAT

BARLEY

OSR

 Global rapeseed production is projected to be higher in the 2018 compared to the 2017 harvest

year. This means that OSR price has declined leading to the end of the quarter.

 High global supply estimates for the 2017/2018 harvest has led to a static wheat market with

a slight decline in the price per tonne.

 There has been very little movement in the barley price.
