Due to lower area and yields, wheat production in 2022/23 is forecast at 26.4 million metric tons (MMT), four percent lower than last year. To make up for the expected domestic shortfall, in 2022/23 wheat imports are forecast at 1.5 MMT. Rice production is forecast at record 9 MMT, which will drive exports to a projected 5 MMT. Benefitting from imported U.S. seed, corn production is forecast to reach another production record of 8.9 million tons in 2022/23.
