Spain: Large Crop Expected to Reduce Spain Grain Import Needs

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   SP2025-0016
Abundant precipitation and mild temperatures prevailing since the beginning of March have favored winter grain crop development and increased yield expectations. Similarly, ample water supplies have allowed a recovery in corn area. However, high temperatures in the second half of May reduced yield expectations in some regions. Spain’s total grain production is expected to exceed 24.1 million MT in MY 2025/26. Grain import demand is projected at 14 million MT- down from the over 16 million MT estimated for MY 2024/25.
