The USDA expects the EU wheat harvest to decrease to 127.4 million tons due to extreme weather conditions like heavy rains in France and drought in the east, leading to a 27% drop in France's output. This, along with expected declines in global wheat production in countries such as Ukraine, Russia, and Great Britain, has resulted in the International Grains Council predicting a slight decrease in global wheat production for 2024/25.
