Canada's soft wheat sowing is facing challenges due to drought in areas like Alberta and Saskatchewan, following last year's half disaster due to drought. Despite these challenges, Canada plans to export a portion of the soft wheat produced, which is beneficial for the confectionery industry, bread, and pizza production. On the other hand, Canadian durum wheat farmers may withhold their produce in anticipation of higher prices due to increased global demand for durum wheat, particularly for pasta production. This situation raises questions about the availability of durum wheat, especially for Italian pasta producers.
