Canada. Durum production down 12%

Published 2025년 1월 29일

Tridge summary

Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) anticipates a mixed outlook for Canada's principal field crops in 2025-26, with overall production expected to decrease. While wheat, barley, and oats are projected to see production increases, these gains are likely to be offset by declines in corn, canola, soybeans, and other crops. Specifically, all-wheat production is set to rise slightly due to expanded seeding and harvesting areas, despite lower yields. Wheat except durum is forecasted to grow by 2.7%, whereas durum wheat is expected to drop by 12% due to reduced seeding and harvesting areas and lower yields. Oat plantings are predicted to increase because of tight supply and demand, while canola production is projected to fall by 2% due to reduced planting areas and pressures from declining prices and other factors.

Production of Canada’s principal field crops is expected to decrease in 2025-26, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) said in its preliminary outlook for 2025-26 Canadian supply and demand. Forecasted increases in Canadian wheat, barley and oats were more than offset by decreases in corn, canola, soybeans and other crops. The outlook was contained in the January Canada: Outlook for Principal Field Crops. AAFC projected Canadian all-wheat production in 2025 at 35.025 million tonnes, up 67,000 tonnes, or 0.2%, from 34.958 million tonnes in 2024. The increase primarily was attributed to larger areas seeded to wheat and harvested, which more than offset a decline in forecasted all-wheat yield. The harvested area for all-wheat was projected at 10.806 million hectares, up 158,000 hectares from 10.648 million hectares in 2024. The average all-wheat yield in 2025 was forecast at 3.24 tonnes per hectare, compared with 3.28 tonnes per hectare in 2024 and 3.08 tonnes per hectare in ...
