The USDA attaché in Madrid projects EU wheat production in 2026-27 at 136.8 million tonnes, down from 145.1 million in 2025-26, on harvested area of 23.65 million hectares and yields of 5.78 t/ha. The attaché noted room for higher yields if spring and early summer weather is favorable.
A smaller EU crop with imports forecast slightly higher at 6.5 million tonnes modestly supports wheat prices and EU import demand, though the outlook remains tied to spring weather.
