Severe frosts in the southern part of New South Wales are likely to affect early wheat crops in areas around Wagga, West Wyalong, Griffith and Hillston. In Western Australia and Victoria, crops may be smaller as a result of below-average rainfall. The Australian Bureau of Agricultural & Resource Economics & Sciences forecasts national wheat production of 24.2 million tonnes for 2014, which is 10 per cent lower than the previous year
