France’s Ministry of Agriculture has launched an inquiry into creating strategic cereal reserves amid concerns about potential wheat shortages. The inquiry is exploratory, and the ministry has not formally explained the need for the review; the article says 46% of French wheat consumption goes to animal feed.
If France establishes reserves, government stockpiling could tighten wheat availability for feed users and support prices, though no reserve policy has yet been adopted.
