In Ukraine, UkrAgroConsult reported that Australia’s sorghum production is forecast to reach 2.6 million tons in 2025-26, up 200,000 tons from the September estimate, but 14 percentage points down on last season, according to Australian government agency ABARES.
The report noted that Queensland region is expected to produce 1.7 million tons of this total, 100,000 tons more than predicted in September due to an extra 40,000ha being planted to sorghum.
Sorghum production in New South Wales has also been revised up from 830,000 tons seen in September to 890,000 tons, mostly due to an additional 10,000ha, “reflecting good soil-moisture availability and better returns compared to cotton”.
