USA: Midyear 2023 craft beer market shows 2% decline
|
The Brewers Association (BA), the trade organization representing small and independent American craft brewers, on August 10 released results from its midyear survey, shedding light on the state of the craft beer industry and indicating optimism for the second half of the year.
Midyear 2023 survey results are on par with 2022 annual trends, with the industry leveling out after years of growth followed by two years of a unique market due to COVID-19. Indicative of a maturing era for the craft beer industry, the survey reveals a low single-digit decline of -2% in the market. From a competitive distribution market and rising costs, to changing consumer preferences and supply chain disruptions, the craft brewing industry has radically grown and shifted over recent decades, with that change only accelerating in recent years.
In breaking down the distribution channels, according to Circana scan data, independent craft packaged sales were down -3% year-over-year (YoY) but have improved since the first quarter of 2023 when they were down -9%. Distributors and retailers have been reducing their focus on distributed craft and searching for growth in other pockets, but there are signs that the worst reductions may be in the past.

Australia: Malting barley exports drop by 25% in June this year
|
Australia exported 418,075t of feed barley, 47,807t of malting barley and 395,370t of sorghum in June, according to the latest data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics, the Grain Central reported on August 10.
On feed, the June figure was down 22 percent from the May total of 534,560t, and Saudi Arabia on 184,000t, Japan on 155,090t and Thailand on 32,571t were the three biggest markets.
The malting figure represents a drop of 25pc from the May total of 63,725t, and Mexico on 33,000t, South Korea on 9000t, and Singapore on 2527t were the major markets for June shipments.
On sorghum, volume has dropped 10pc from the May peak of 440,921t.
China on 275,462t accounted for 70pc of June shipments, with 60,000t to Kenya and 30,000t to Sudan the second and third-biggest markets.
Flexi Grain pool manager Sam Roache said the feed barley shipment figure for June shows a continued drift lower in volume to the lowest level seen since January.
Barley exports continued to drift lower for June, with feed barley volume the lightest since January 2023 and malting the lowest since February.
“That was back when everyone thought there was no malt quality around,” Mr Roache said.
“The story of the slow slowdown on exports is

France: Barley harvest makes little progress as northern France experiences more wet weather
|
French farmers made little progress harvesting wheat and barley last week as northern regions experienced more wet and cool weather, data from farm office FranceAgriMer showed on August 11.
Farmers had gathered 89% of this year's soft wheat crop by Aug. 7, compared with 87% a week earlier, FranceAgriMer said in a cereal report.
The harvest was lagging both the rapid pace last year, when field work was already complete by the same week, and the average 94% for the same week over the past five years, it said.
After a brisk start to the summer, field work has been held up by heavy rain since late July, raising concern over the milling quality of wheat still to be harvested.
FranceAgriMer this week said that wheat in the northwest was expected to suffer some quality loss, though readings were satisfactory in earlier-harvested crop.
However, drier and warmer conditions from the middle of this week are expected to allow farmers to complete harvesting.
The spring barley harvest hardly advanced last week, with 96% of the crop cut by Aug. 7 against 95% a week earlier.
Farmers completed winter barley and durum wheat harvesting last month.
The wet, mild weather has helped maize, which is harvested later in the year.

Australia & China: Australia’s two largest barley producers cleared to export to China
|
CBH Group and Emerald Grain, Australia’s two largest barley producers, have been given approval by the Chinese government to resume barley shipments to China, according to the Australian Associated Press.
Australia’s agriculture minister, Murry Watt, confirmed on Aug. 9 that both would be reinstated as registered exporters. The two agribusiness companies were not on the customs list when China announced on Aug. 4 that its three-year 80% duty on barley exports from Australia had been lifted.
Nearly 130 Australian exporters are now registered to export barley to China, the Australian Associated Press reported.
“We welcome this positive news and look forward to working with our customers to return to exporting Western Australian barley to China, a longstanding market,” CBH told the Australian Associated Press through a spokesperson.
China blocked CBH grain imports in September 2020 after it claimed customs found pests in a shipment of barley.
The 80% duty had been in place since June 2020. China said the tariff was due to Australia “dumping” barley, meaning its exports were priced lower than China’s domestic supply. However, Australia’s hardline stance on China’s role regarding the origins of the global COVID-19 pandemic was also reportedly a factor.
Prior to the tariff being imposed, Australia was by

Ukraine: Analysts increase barley, corn, wheat crop forecasts on stronger than expected yields
|
SovEcon analysts have increased its Ukraine grain production forecasts for corn (up 2 mln tonnes to 25.9 mln), wheat (up 1.3 mln tonnes to 19.2 mln) and barley (up 400,000 tonnes to 4.8 mln) due to stronger-than-expected yields for wheat and barley, along with favorable weather for corn development, AgWeb reported on August 10.
The Black Sea consulting firm raised its 2023-24 Ukrainian corn export forecast by 1 mln tonnes to 19 mln amid the bigger crop estimate. SovEcon also noted: “As the main buyer of Ukrainian grain, the EU could prioritize buying corn over other grains.”
It left the 2023-24 wheat and barley export forecasts at 10 mln tonnes and 1.3 mln tonnes, respectively, “as shipments may be limited by infrastructure bottlenecks and recent attacks on the Danube ports.” SovEcon said it believes Danube ports could ship up to 2 mln to 2.5 mln tonnes of Ukrainian grains per month.
