The provisional UK oat area for 2025-26 is the largest in five years, up 13%, with potential output of 1 to 1.2 million tonnes. Animal feed demand for oats is rising as availability improves, while human and industrial demand was 5% below average this year.
A larger UK oat crop and higher carry-in stocks point to a well-supplied feed oat balance, which is bearish for oat prices and supports feed use.
After 72 past bearish report events, Oats moved a median +0.2% over 5 sessions (50% higher; middle half -3.7% to +3.8%), and -2.5% over 20.
