Grain receivals into Viterra’s eastern region are reaching completion with the majority of activity occurring in the South East.
Viterra eastern region operations manager Jo Klitscher said Viterra’s South East sites were continuing to receive wheat, barley, canola, faba beans and oats.
Between December 20 and January 2, growers delivered 680,000 tonnes of grain into the Viterra network across South Australia, bringing the overall total to date for the 2021/22 harvest to just over 5.5 million tonnes.
The majority of deliveries were wheat, followed by barley, faba beans and canola.
As deliveries start to slow, with many having completed their harvest, Viterra is continuing to prepare grain in storage for domestic buyers and getting ready for shipping overseas in response to strong exports and demand.
