E-Malt.com News article: UK: Season-to-date barley exports total 690.3 thousand tonnes

UK’s barley exports continue, with April totalling 70.7 thousand tonnes, AHDB reported on June 14. This brings season-to-date exports to 690.3 thousand tonnes.

To reach the full season forecast of 765.0 thousand tonnes, May and June would need to see an average monthly pace of 37.3 thousand. This looks significantly below the 3-year average of 54.3 thousand tonnes for May and 51.7 thousand for June, the agriculture board said.

With the domestic balance of barley already very tight this season will be the smallest balance forecast since 2007/08, AHDB added.
