Egypt: Grain and Feed Update

Egyptian marketing year (MY) 2023/24 wheat imports are estimated at 12.0 million metric tons (MMT), up by 6.9 percent from MY 2022/23 due to lower area and production. Corn imports are estimated at 6.5 MMT in MY 2023/24, an increase of 8.3 percent from the previous year as higher corn area is more than offset by increased heat stress and insects. Rice imports are estimated at 450,000 MT in MY 2023/24, unchanged from the previous marketing year.
