# Oat milling demand boosted in first half of 2020/21: Grain market daily | AHDB

> UK oat milling rose 3% year on year to 275Kt in July-December 2020, helped by higher oat flake exports that nearly doubled to 49Kt. Feed wheat futures rose on global wheat gains and a SovEcon cut to Russian wheat, while USDA outlook forecasts for larger US corn and soybean plantings pushed those crops lower.
