BIG SHIPMENT
A further 21,600 tonnes of barley from the most recent season’s harvest will be shipped shortly to South East Asia. Mr H. P. Kearney, general manager of the Canterbury (N.Z.) Malting Company, said this week that the barley, including a fairly substantial quantity of malting barley surplus to requirements, was being exported by a consortium of merchants. The barley, he said, had originally been sold for shipment in June but it would now be going by the Maroula, which was expected to have completed discharging in the North
Island by the middle of next month, after which it would come to Timaru and - then to Lyttelton to complete loading the barley. Of malting barley still held on farms, Mr Kearney said, malting preference for inclusion in the shipment would be given to barley « from growers who wished to t to make early delivery. The s barley still held on farms [ after completion of the - shipment would be taken < into the malt house at ( Heathcote as soon as it ( could be processed. ; The shipment, he said, j would bring to more than ; 70.000 tonnes barley < exported from the last har- ? vest. <
