Turkiye: Grain and Feed Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   TU2024-0012
Production volumes of wheat and barley in marketing year (MY) 2024/25 are forecast to remain unchanged compared to last year, while corn production is expected to drop year-to-year by 1.2 million metric tons (MMT) as farmers switch to growing more profitable crops, such as cotton and other row crops. With corn production projected to shrink, corn export volumes will likewise fall significantly lower. Imports of wheat are projected to decrease by 1.0 MMT from last year because of larger-than-normal carryover stocks. Meantime, despite disruptions in the Red Sea, flour exports are on pace to reach a record in MY 2023/24.
