 Unfavourable crop prospects and food supply shortfall
|
NORTH AMERICA: Cereal production in both the United States and Canada is set to recover sharply from last year�s drought-reduced levels. Winter wheat is already being harvested in parts of the United States while planting of the spring/summer crops in the region has mostly been completed under satisfactory conditions. According to latest forecasts, output could increase by almost 50 percent in Canada and about 15 percent in the United States. In Canada, the bulk of the cereal crop has just been planted under generally satisfactory conditions. |
