E-Malt.com News article: UK: Barley imports almost equal to exports in July 2013

UK barley imports were 10.2 thousand tonnes in July 2013, down from 12.1 thousand tonnes in June 2013 but the highest level of imports for the month of July since July 2009, HMR&C reported on September 17.

Exports reached 10.5 thousand tonnes in July 2013, an increase on the 7.2 thousand tonnes imported in the previous month but the lowest level of exports for the month of July based on records dating back to July 1992, as poor weather before harvest and concerns over harvest timing prevented early sales.
