EU cereal yields will remain stable but oilseed yields will increase in 2035

Published 2024년 12월 12일

Tridge summary

The European Commission's long-term outlook for 2024-2035 forecasts a stable to slightly increased production of cereals and oilseeds, despite challenges such as climate change, extreme weather, and input price volatility. Cereal yields are expected to remain stable with marginal increases, while oilseed yields are projected to grow marginally. The EU's cereal production is anticipated to increase by 1.1%, with a decrease in animal feed usage but stable human consumption. Oilseed and legume production is expected to rise by 2.1%, led by soybeans and legumes, with a decrease in rapeseed due to reduced biofuel demand. The EU is projected to become a net importer of fewer oilseeds and pulses, but human consumption of pulses is expected to increase significantly.

Cereals and oilseeds will face a relatively stable outlook in the European Union (EU), with marginal increases in yields and adaptations driven by sustainable agricultural practices and supportive policies, according to the 2024-2035 long-term outlook report published by the European Commission. Cereal yields in the EU are projected to remain virtually stable until 2035, with marginal increases of 0.2% in wheat and maize, and a slightly higher growth of 0.75% in barley, compared to the 2022-2024 average. These modest advances are attributed to innovations in sustainable intensification, such as precision and regenerative agriculture, together with the development of new agricultural varieties. However, these positive factors will have to offset the negative impacts of climate change, extreme weather events and volatility in input prices such as fertilizers. For oilseeds, limited yield growth is expected towards 2035: soybeans (+3.9%), sunflowers (+1.4%) and rapeseed (+0.1%). ...
