AWB will pay its second distribution to barley growers in its 2009/10 season barley pools overnight on Wednesday, 18 August.
AWB General Manager Commodities, Mitch Morison, said the estimated pool returns (EPRs) for AWB’s 2009/10 barley pools were steady, with the sales program for this grain well advanced.
“Our barley sales and shipping program has developed from early right through to the middle of the year; we have been actively pricing barley into domestic and international markets and are well on track towards completing and finalising the pool,” Mr Morison said.
AWB’s 2009/10 barley pool EPRs are F1 $176/t, F2 $166/t, BA1 $269/t, GA1 $269/t, BU1 $259/t, VL1 $259/t (EPRs are FOB, excl GST).
