Turkey: Grain and Feed Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

Turkey experienced a winter drought this year. The MY 2020/21 wheat production forecast estimate is 18 million metric tons (MMT), with an increase in planting area. The barley production and planting area forecast remains the same as last year at 7.9 MMT and 3.8 million hectares (ha). The corn production estimate is 6.9 MMT due to increased planting area. Some cotton producers in certain regions shifted to wheat and corn. Some product exports and imports have already been affected by COVID-19 related issues, and more effects may be seen the longer restrictions on movement and trade linger.
