Market Check

Your trusted partner in grain marketing - reliable, rewarding and relationships driven for over 30 years.

Established in 1994, Market Check has grown to become Australia’s most highly respected and widely used independent grain marketer. Initially established as an advisory based business, the company has evolved over its twenty year existence to a point where it not only provides analysis and advisory services but also cash market ex*****on and large scale managed market programs that aid clients to

maximise their return on capital. Most importantly, throughout the company’s existence, exclusive representation for the producer has been established as no affiliation with traders or consumers exists, creating a transparent company agenda.

The great rally has faltered!

Rumours of imports into QLD from WA & welcome rain has hurt prices in NSW/QLD, with falls more muted in VIC/SA.

Exports continue to run at a record with spring weather also to come but for now, consumers are breathing a sigh of relief.

The footy tipping season is starting to take shape, and the leaderboards are tightening up 🏉

In the NRL, DekaDavo has surged to the top of the table, with members continuing to dominate and only one employee managing to sneak into the top 10.

It's a battle at the top, with UpSh!tcreek narrowly pulling into first place in the AFL, with members once again holding the upper hand. In fact, Tommy Bas is the only employee currently sitting inside the top 10 in both the NRL and AFL!

There’s still plenty of rounds left to play, and with a 45L YETI cooler + $1,000 cash up for grabs for first place, and $500 cash for the runner up.

The great barley rally continues 📈.. well in NSW/QLD at least.

Delivered Downs barley is ~$430/t & the market is busy trying to calculate how close WA/SA supplies are to pricing a vessel to QLD. Southern markets are stronger on record export volumes & low grower selling.

Barley prices continue to rise but at very different speeds. NSW/QLD are both roaring higher, with proximity to the Darling Downs feed markets paying the biggest premiums.

VIC/SA are trudging higher but its more of a slow grind, with prices now sitting around $300-$310 NTP.
