# Plentiful barley supplies may pressure prices | The Western Producer

> LeftField Commodity Research forecasts Canadian barley supplies of 10.7 to 11.7 million tonnes for 2024-25, well above the 2023-24 level of 9.65 million tonnes. The outlook assumes farmers plant about 6.6 million acres because feed and malt prices have fallen since Statistics Canada's survey.

## Why it matters

Ample Canadian barley supplies are bearish for feed barley values and compete with corn and wheat in feed rations. Lower acreage expectations partly offset the supply overhang.
