China’s hunger for Australian barley is back

Published

on

China has revived its demand for Australian barley after a three-year hiatus imposed by crippling tariffs, reigniting a nearly $1 billion market.

The resurrection of this trade relationship comes as a welcome development for Australian barley farmers who have long yearned for a return to their largest export market.**

This revival follows the resolution of a trade dispute that had seen China impose punitive tariffs on Australian barley exports in 2018. At its peak, the barley trade between these two nations was valued at nearly $1 billion, but it crumbled under the weight of political tensions and trade disputes. The recent diplomatic breakthrough, signaling improved relations between China and Australia, has provided a much-needed boost to the Australian agricultural sector.

The revival of the barley trade raises questions about the broader implications for Australia’s agricultural exports to China.

Could this signal a thawing of tensions in other areas of trade between the two countries, or is it merely an isolated event?

The Australian government and farmers alike are hopeful that this marks the beginning of a trend towards increased collaboration.

Amid ongoing global trade uncertainties and supply chain disruptions, the resumption of barley exports to China brings a sense of stability to Australian farmers. However, it also underscores the vulnerability of agricultural markets to geopolitical tensions and trade disputes. As both nations tread carefully in this renewed trade relationship, observers are keen to see how it evolves in the coming months and whether it can weather the storms of international politics.

Greenland’s PM chooses Denmark over U.S. amid Trump’s controversy over Arctic control, emphasizing sovereignty and local sentiment.


Greenland’s Prime Minister Jens‑Frederik Nielsen has delivered a clear message amid renewed pressure from the U.S. — if forced to choose between the United States and Denmark, Greenland will pick Denmark, NATO, and the EU.

Nielsen made the declaration in Copenhagen alongside Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen ahead of diplomatic talks with top U.S. officials.

The announcement comes as U.S. President Donald Trump has again stoked controversy by suggesting Washington could pursue ownership or control of Greenland, citing strategic interests in the Arctic. European leaders and Greenlandic officials have pushed back strongly against these ideas, emphasising sovereignty and respect for international law.

This standoff places Greenland’s future in the spotlight — as Copenhagen and Nuuk reaffirm their ties, local sentiment remains overwhelmingly opposed to U.S. annexation and supportive of Greenland’s own path forward.
