MY 2018/2019 corn production is forecast at a record 101 million metric tons (MMT), 25 percent higher than MY 2017/2018 production and 2.5 MMT larger than the previous record harvest in MY 2016/2017. MY milled rice production is estimated at 7.15 MMT, a decrease of 13 percent from MY 2017/2018 due to decreased area and lower yields in some regions. Wheat production for MY 2019/20 is forecast relatively stagnant at 5.5 MMT, while total area is forecast at 2 million hectares, about 2 percent less than the previous harvest.
