# Wheat production expected to grow by 11% in the European Union

> The USDA's May World Agricultural Production report forecasts EU wheat output for 2025/26 at 136.0 million tonnes, up 11% year on year. The increase reflects a 6% larger harvested area of 24.0 million ha and a yield of 5.67 t/ha. Favorable crop conditions and higher French and German wheat plantings support the forecast.

## Why it matters

A USDA-confirmed EU wheat rebound increases global export supply and reduces EU import needs. This is bearish for wheat and wheat-based feed prices.
