Japan: Japan Grain and Feed Update October 2015

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

With MAFF’s strong push to use rice for feed, rice used in compound feed exceeded one million metric tons in MY2014/15 for the first time on record, at the expense of wheat and corn. Japan’s aggregate food wheat consumption is expected to remain flat at 5.9 million MT in MY2015/16. Increased domestic wheat production in 2015 is forecast to result in slightly lower food wheat imports in MY2015/16, but this is expected to be offset by an increase in feed wheat imports.
