The IGC's July report cut 2026/27 global cereal production by 5 million tonnes to 2,422 million tonnes after European heatwaves. Oat, sorghum and rye yields were also reduced, and soybean output is forecast at a record high.
A lower global cereal crop and tighter end-of-season stocks support grain prices, while record soybean output limits gains in oilseeds.
