Teagasc reports Irish cereal production down 11%, from 2.162 million tonnes in 2025 to 1.997 million tonnes in 2026. The decline reflects a smaller planted area and dry, hot conditions from May to July, with the midlands and southeast on light soils hit hardest.
A shorter Irish cereal crop means more imports for local feed mills, which supports demand for imported grains and meal. The effect on world prices is small given Ireland's modest output.
