Australia’s 2025/26 barley harvest is underway and early expectations for a record should see the country as an active participant in the world export market going forward.
Feed prices on the Canadian Prairies are likely to remain steady for the time being, said Brandon Motz, a manager at CorNine Commodities in Lacombe, Alta.
While demand and activity is slowly ramping up for the fall cattle run, feed grain prices are currently in decline, said a Lethbridge, Alta.-based trader.
Ample supplies and a lack of demand are weighing on Western Canadian feed barley in early October, with both buyers and sellers reluctant to push values one way or the other.
Prices for feed grains on the Canadian Prairies have “started to rebound a little bit,” said Matt Beusekom, trader with Market Place Commodities in Lethbridge.
