Australia exported 2.8 MMT of wheat in February, which is thought to be a monthly record for the country, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS). In January, the country exported 2.7 MMT. In February 2021, the country shipped 2.6 MMT of wheat. From December 2021 to February 2022, Australia exported 6.94 MMT of wheat, compared to 6.76 MMT a year before. The country was expected to ship around 3 MMT in March. However, excessive rains affected some of the country’s ports and likely held wheat shipments under February’s total.
