TREE NEWS reports: China’s autumn grain harvest has passed 30% nationwide as of Oct 1, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs said. The southwest is nearly 70% complete, the middle and lower Yangtze region 45%, the Huang-Huai-Hai plain and the northwest each over 30%, and the northeast over 10%. Mostly clear weather in the north recently has favored the harvest.
China’s Autumn Grain Harvest Passes 30% as of Oct 1
The regional spread matters more than the headline number: the northeast, China's biggest autumn grain source, is only just getting started, so the national figure will hinge on conditions there over the coming weeks. The ministry's emphasis on favorable northern weather is a near-term signal, not a yield verdict. Whether that weather holds through the northeast's main window is the open question for supply expectations.
