Uruguayan wheat production for 2017/18 is forecast to drop significantly to 660,000 tons due to expected tight returns. As a result, exports will drop considerably to only 200,000 tons. Barley area and production is also expected to drop. Corn area for 2017/18 is expected to remain unchanged, but more normal yields than in 2016/17 would result in a drop in production to 440,000 tons. Therefore, corn imports are expected to rebound to 150,000 tons. No significant changes are projected for sorghum, which is not traded in significant quantities. Rice production for 2017/18 is forecast at 925,000 tons (milled basis), a slight drop from the previous year. Exports are expected to reflect the drop, with a total volume of 850,000 tons (milled basis).
