Breaking: The @BOM_au has just raised the ENSO outlook to El Niño ALERT. This means they estimate approximately a 70% chance of El Niño forming in 2023. If anything, this is understating the risk.

Extreme climate events can have long lasting effects after the initial disaster - in this case, dairy production is down even a year after the Lismore floods. We need better tools to help farmers recover from climate shocks.

Today's outlook from @ABARES shows farm exports will soar to a record $75 billion this financial year. Winter crops reached a massive 67.3 million tonnes in 2022. It's been a great year for many in the industry.

Frost and heat stress costs Australian grains farmers $500m annually, and this is set to get worse with climate change. Milder winters mean earlier flowering, and with this comes spring frosts. Parts of the WA wheat belt that rarely saw spring frosts now get them regularly.
Great to see the @theGRDC fund this much needed research and development effort, and we are excited to be part of the solution for farmers.

ALT Photo: Paul Jones Wet conditions prior to or during harvest can cause seed to germinate which reduces starch and protein and results in downgrading.
Their clients can take out cover for cumulative rainfall for the period in the lead-up to harvest if you know when this will be, or get cover for heavy rain events over a wider time period if the rain means you are uncertain about when exactly harvest will be.
