# USW pitches US wheat blends to Brazilian millers at Abitrigo

> U.S. Wheat Associates promoted U.S. hard red winter and other wheat classes to Brazilian millers at the Abitrigo congress, positioning them as blending wheat for lower-quality domestic and Argentine supplies. USDA’s FAS forecast Brazil’s 2026–27 wheat crop down 22.5% to 6.1 million tonnes and said imports could reach a record high as millers seek higher-quality wheat.

## Why it matters

A smaller Brazilian crop is expected to increase import demand, while the blending pitch could support U.S. wheat exports to Brazil. The demand shift is supportive for wheat prices, particularly higher-quality classes.
