Pakistan: Grain and Feed Update

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

The Government of Pakistan has set the wheat production target at a record 26 million metric tons for the 2015 Rabi (winter) season. Wheat yields are expected to benefit from earlier planting and subsequent root system development as farmers reduce cotton pickings in the face of low prices. Wheat area is not expected to change significantly from a year ago. Harvesting of the 2015/16 rice crop has been completed and initial reports suggest rice production will reach 6.9 million metric tons. During MY 2014-15, Pakistan exported nearly 4.1 million metric tons of rice.
