Media is raising fears around fertiliser imports, but Octopusbot’s vessel-level data says otherwise.
April forecast:
• Imports slightly higher vs. history (ex-2023 spike)
• NSW ~150%⬆️
• QLD & SA⬆️
• VIC & WA ⬇️
Planting looks covered. Risk shifts to dressing period.
🇨🇳China #wheat 26/27
• NDVI 25yr low in Henan, Shandong, Hebei (~50% area).
• Sharp shift to very dry Dec–Jan.
@Octopusbot1 projects lowest yields since 2020.
Imports may return to ~13.6MT (2023) or higher = bullish global wheat.
Still largely underpriced🌾

Great to spend time with the Rabobank Australia & New Zealand team, sharing how AI and data technology are impacting decision-making across agriculture and how many Rabobank customers are already using Octopusbot as an independent, data-driven tool to frame risk, uncertainty, and planning decisions more effectively.
Thanks to the Rabobank team for the invitation and the engaging discussions. It’s encouraging to see how alternative data and AI are becoming part of everyday conversations across the ag sector.
