Dry weather conditions prevailing throughout the winter grains crop cycle, along with warmer than average spring temperatures have driven down yield expectations in Spain. Overall grain production is projected to be below historical average levels. The strong demand by the domestic livestock industry, along with limited pasture availability will contribute to increase the country’s grain import needs. Changes in the feed formula along with stock use may partially alleviate the grain shortfall.
