Pakistan: Grain and Feed Update

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   PK2023-0024
No significant changes are made to 2023/24 rice and wheat supply and demand forecasts. Private sector wheat import commitments of about 1.4 million tons underpin the 2 million ton 2023/24 wheat import forecast. Rice exports reached a record level in the final quarter of 2023. Given surplus exportable supplies at competitive prices, the rice export pace is expected to remain strong next year, resulting in the 5 million ton rice export forecast for 2024.
