Uruguayan wheat harvested area remains unchanged in marketing year (MY) 2018/19 with production forecast at 600,000 tons on average yields with exports of 100,000 tons rebounding to normal levels after weather-related impacts in MY 17/18. Corn area for MY 2018/19 is projected at 70,000 hectares with a production of 420,000 tons, more than double the volume of drought-impacted MY 2017/18 crop. Growing demand for corn raises MY 2017/18 and MY 2018/19 imports to record highs. Sorghum production for MY 2018/19 is forecast higher at 210,000 tons on favorable weather and marginally higher harvested area. Rice production for MY 2018/19 is projected at 1.22 million tons (rough basis) a marginal drop from the previous year on smaller harvested area with consequent drop in rice export expectations to 800,000 tons (milled basis).
