CommBank Agri Podcast

Join Dennis Voznesenski, CBA’s Agricultural and Sustainability Economist, for this week’s Agri Commodity Update - where escalating Black Sea export disruption, stronger oil-markets and improving Australian rainfall collide with farmgate prices.
This week, Dennis unpacks why Australian APW1 prices fell as northern hemisphere harvest supply pressure and favourable local weather weighed on prices, before examining why Russia’s wheat story is increasingly about how much grain it can get out, rather than simply how much it can produce. He also breaks down canola’s rally from oil-markets, Black Sea logistics and North American biofuel demand, before turning to cattle markets where favourable rain and tight US beef supply remain supportive, but temporarily weaker export demand is limiting local price upside.

Join Dennis Voznesenski, Agriculture and Sustainability Economist at Commonwealth Bank, for this week’s Agri Commodity Update - where Black Sea disruption, improving northern hemisphere supply and softer global demand collide with Australian farmgate prices.
This week, Dennis unpacks why wheat prices fell as harvest supply outweighed repeated attacks on Black Sea export infrastructure, why Australian APW1 prices followed offshore futures lower and how forecast southern rainfall is improving local crop prospects. He also breaks down canola’s decline from improved Canadian crop conditions, weaker soybeans, softer oil-markets and a firmer Australian dollar. He then turns to cattle markets where tight US supply remains supportive, but limited inland rainfall, rising yardings and weaker Chinese and US beef-market signals are putting downward pressure on prices.

Join Dennis Voznesenski, Director, Sustainable and Agricultural Economist at Commonwealth Bank, for this week’s Agri Commodity Update — where Black Sea disruption, oil-markets and global beef trade collide with Australian farmgate prices.
This week, Dennis unpacks why wheat prices swung sharply as Russia-Ukraine attacks disrupted Black Sea export logistics, why Australian APW1 prices rose despite offshore futures finishing lower, and how patchy rainfall is changing local crop prospects. He also breaks down canola’s pull between weaker oilseed and crude markets, Canadian crop risk and expanded crushing capacity, before turning to cattle markets where US beef demand and continued market access remain supportive, but limited inland rain, higher feedgrain costs, rising yardings and South Korea’s safeguard tariff are limiting upside.

This week, Dennis Voznesenski, CBA’s Agricultural Economist, interviews Stockyard CEO Lisa Sharp. Stockyard is a Wagyu and Angus beef business based in Queensland. It operates across much of the beef supply chain, from breeding and feeding cattle through to exporting beef. At any given time, Stockyard’s Kerwee Feedlot can have up to 20,000 cattle on feed. Its export markets include Japan, South Korea, the Middle East, the domestic Australian market and other parts of Asia. Dennis and Lisa sit down to discuss seasonal conditions, export markets and cattle breeds.

Join Dennis Voznesenski, Director, Sustainable and Agricultural Economist at Commonwealth Bank, for this week’s Agri Commodity Update — where Black Sea disruption, oil-markets and the Middle East collide with Australian farmgate prices.
This week, Dennis unpacks why wheat prices rallied sharply as Russia-Ukraine attacks disrupted Black Sea export logistics, why Australian APW1 prices rose but lagged offshore futures, and how WA rainfall is changing local crop prospects. He also breaks down canola’s lift from crude oil, soybean oil, European crop downgrades and improved Chinese import access, before turning to cattle markets where rainfall and US beef demand remain supportive, but higher feedgrain costs, larger yardings and Brazilian beef competition are limiting upside.

Join Dennis Voznesenski for this week’s Agri Commodity Update — where global geopolitical risk is back at the centre of agricultural markets.
This week, Dennis unpacks why wheat prices jumped as Black Sea disruption, tighter North American supply and European crop-quality concerns pushed offshore futures sharply higher — and why Australian APW1 prices only partly followed. He also breaks down Canadian canola moisture risk, stronger China-linked soybean demand, split GM and non-GM canola prices, and why cattle markets took a breather as higher yardings, firmer feed costs and softer offshore beef signals weighed on prices. From the Sea of Azov to the Strait of Hormuz, this is the week in agriculture through the lens of prices, risk and Australian producer impact.

Join Dennis Voznesenski, Director, Sustainable and Agricultural Economist at Commonwealth Bank, for this week’s Agri Commodity Update — where global market risk meets Australian farmgate reality.
This week, Dennis unpacks why offshore wheat and canola markets rallied, why Australian prices only partly followed, and how plentiful rainfall is reshaping local crop and cattle market confidence. From weaker US wheat conditions and European quality risk, to Canadian canola weather concerns, softer feedgrain costs and shifting beef demand from the US, China and South Korea — this is the week in agriculture, through the lens of prices, risk and what it means for Australian producers.
