Pakistan: Grain and Feed Update

Planting for the next wheat crop will start by mid-October amid reports that water availability for irrigation during the upcoming Rabi (winter) season is good. Pakistan is expected to import around one million tons of wheat during the current marketing year. Pakistan is importing wheat to build its strategic reserves in wake of COVID-19 and locusts attacks. Pakistan’s MY 20/21 rice production forecast is unchanged at 7.4 MMT. MY19/20 and 20/21 rice exports estimate is revised downwards from 4.4 MMT to 4.0 MMT due to increase in domestic rice price, lock down impact in Pakistan and effects of COVID-19 in certain export markets. Pakistan has so far exported around 3.4 MMT of rice during the ten months of the current marketing year.
