This figures represents a significant increase from the previous month and the year before, likely due to a smaller harvest in Western Australia during the 2023-24 growing season. The country is projected to export 523,000 tonnes in February, and the total export estimate for the 2024-25 season has been revised downwards to 4.51 million tonnes.
