For marketing year (MY) 2018/19 (May to April), Post’s forecast for total rice area and production is revised down to 11.6 million hectares and 34.4 million tons on slightly lower Boro and Aus rice acreage due to adverse weather conditions. Post’s MY 2018/19 (July to June) wheat production forecasts are unchanged at 1.18 MMT assuming normal weather conditions and marginal yield increase compared to last year. Corn production estimates for MY 2018/19 (May to April) are slightly lowered to 3.4 MMT due to reduced cultivation area of summer corn and early flooding in lowland areas as a result of heavy rains.
