Romania: Romanian Wheat Exports Are Flourishing
Romania is strengthening its position as a grain producer and as a leading exporter among EU member states for wheat and corn. The winter wheat and barley crops have good prospects, but production is anticipated to fall in 2017 due to lower planted area. Wheat exports are set to reach a record this season, but are projected to decline the next season. The corn harvest is foreseen to slightly improve. Soil moisture improved in most of the areas, which will help spring plant emergence and development. This report does not reflect the potential effects of the unusual weather conditions during the second half of April on crops. Note: This report is to be read in conjunction with the Annual 2017 EU28 Consolidated Report on Grains and provides further information on Romanian market of grains.
