Brewery news Vietnam & Thailand: Thai billionaire’s firm fetches $383 mln from Sabeco dividends over 6 years
Thai billionaire Charoen Sirivadhanabhakdi’s company has received a total of VND9.3 trillion ($383 million) in cash dividends from brewer Sabeco since its acquisition of the company in 2017, VnExpress.Net reported on December 7.

The Saigon Beer brewer is set to pay its shareholders a total of VND1.92 trillion in cash dividends this year.

Its biggest shareholder with a 53.6% stake, Viet Beverage – which is a subsidiary of Sirivadhanabhakdi’s Thai Beverage – will receive VND1.03 trillion.

This brings the total amount of cash dividend that Thai Beverage has received from Sabeco since 2017 to VND9.3 trillion.

The dividend alone is equivalent to 8.4% of Thai Beverage’s VND110 trillion investment in the company.

Sabeco has been paying its shareholders cash dividends regularly in recent years as it seeks to give shareholders a sustainable and increasing source of cash.

Thai Beverage CEO Thapana Sirivadhanabhakdi last year called Sabeco a "crown jewel" and a rare asset among all brewers in Southeast Asia.

Vietnam in 2021 was the biggest beer market in Southeast Asia and third biggest in Asia at $26 billion, behind China and Japan.

Sabeco, however, has seen post-tax profits plunge 26% year-on-year in the first nine months to VND3.3 trillion amid declining demand as Vietnam tightens anti drink-driving laws.


Brewery news Belgium & Germany: St. Bernardus and Weihenstephan to launch second edition of their collab beer in 2024
The Bavarian State Brewery Weihenstephan and the St. Bernardus brewery from Belgium will launch the second edition of the Braupakt collab beer in 2024, Beer and Brewer reported on December 6.

Braupakt was first produced in 2018, a collaboration between Weihenstephan and Californian craft beer pioneers Sierra Nevada. Nearly six years later, the collab gets a sequel, a Blonde Ale that will be available in Australia from the middle of next year.

Made using hops from Belgium, Weihenstephan yeast, and Bavarian malt, the beer is brewed in accordance with the Purity Law of 1516. Spicy, with a characteristic yeast note, Braupakt 2024 is fruity and strong with an ABV of 6.5%.

The Weihenstephan and St. Bernardus breweries already have something in common. The faces of both breweries are monks, and the two historical figures appear on the beer’s label, which shows the two monks taking a first sip of the Blonde Ale.

Marcus Englet, Head of Export of the Weihenstephan brewery, is delighted with the result of the collaboration. “With Braupakt 2024, we have succeeded in creating a collaboration in a class of its own: a beer based on a Belgian style that was created not only with ingredients from both countries, but also ...More info on site

Barley news Australia & China: China ships 314,000 tonnes of Australian barley since lifting import tariff
It’s news that will set the Aussie grains industry cheering, The West Australian reported on December 8.

China has publicly confirmed it has accepted Australian barley, likely to be made into beer, for the first time in three years.

The first shipment of Western Australia barley since the Asian powerhouse lifted its 80.5 per cent tariff left the Kwinana Grain terminal on August 29. It carried some 55,000 tonnes of Maximus malt barley bound for China.

Fresh data from China’s customs agency shows 314,000 tonnes of barley from Australia, valued at AU$139 million, has cleared customs between that first shipment in late August and the end of October. It’s the first time officials have confirmed that Australian barley has arrived in China in more than three years.

The country slapped the hefty tariffs on Australian barley imports in May 2020. Before then, the trade was worth almost AU$920 million a year. The vast majority of these exports came from Western Australia farmers.

Agriculture Minister Murray Watt said seeing “the return to business-as-usual trade in barley” after years of disruption was great.

“Better outcomes for farmers mean stronger regional communities, which is good for our country,” he said.

“Agricultural trade between ...More info on site


Barley news France: Winter barley sowing 94% complete as of December 4
French farmers had sown 89% of the expected soft wheat area for next year's harvest by 4 December, compared with 83% a week earlier, as a rain-delayed sowing campaign edged towards a close, data from farm office FranceAgriMer showed.

The soft wheat sowing pace lagged 99% progress a year earlier and a 96% average for the same period over the past five years, FranceAgriMer said in a cereal crop report.

France, the European Union's biggest grain producer, had record rainfall between mid-October and mid-November. While precipitation has since eased, regular showers have kept fields waterlogged in parts of western and northern France.

Soggy conditions have also affected the state of emerged crops. FranceAgriMer's rating of soft wheat crops dropped again, with 77% rated good or excellent by 4 December, against 80% the previous week.

The score was the lowest for the period since 2019, when heavy rain also disrupted autumn sowing and reduced the winter cereals harvest the following year.

The agriculture ministry is due to publish on Tuesday (12 December) a first estimate of the area sown with winter crops for the 2024 harvest.

Winter barley sowing was 94% complete by Monday, December 4, compared with 92% the previous week and a five-year average of ...More info on site


Barley news Ukraine: Barley crop estimate updated to 5.8 mln tonnes
Ukraine's farm ministry on December 8 raised its 2023 grain harvest forecast to 59.7 million metric tons, saying the country had achieved a record grain yield.

The total grain and oilseed harvest is expected to reach 81.3 million tonnes, the ministry said in a statement, compared to an October forecast of 79.1 million tonnes. The ministry said the grain yield increased to 54.7 centners per hectare (C/ha) in 2023, topping the 53.6 C/ha of 2021. A centner is equivalent to 100 kilograms.

According to updated estimates, the wheat harvest is expected at 22.2 million tonnes, barley at 5.8 million and corn at 30.1 million tonnes. The 2023 forecast for the sunflower seed harvest remained at 13 million tonnes and for soybeans at 4.6 million tonnes. Rapeseed harvesting has been completed at more than 4 million tonnes.
