The United Nations' Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) forecasts a new record in global wheat production in 2021, expected to increase by 1.9% to 780 million tonnes, due to higher production in the European Union and other countries. However, despite potential weather challenges in Russia, the overall world cereal production is also expected to rise.
