Mexico: Grain and Feed Update

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   MX2022-0002

Mexico’s wheat production forecast for marketing year (MY) 2021/22 is revised upward, based on more complete figures from Mexico's Secretariat of Agriculture and Rural Development (SADER), and reflecting favorable weather conditions that resulted in higher yields than initially expected. Projected corn production for MY 2021/22 is reduced to 27.12 million metric tons (MMT) due to lower harvested area. The sorghum production forecast for MY 2020/21 is revised upward due to a slightly higher harvested area. Rice production for MY 2021/22 (October to September) is forecasted slightly downward to 305,000 MT (rough production), the equivalent of 210,000 MT of milled rice, reflecting a lack of water availability and subsequent decreased yields.
