Unfavourable crop prospects and food supply shortfall |

NORTH AMERICA: In the United States, total wheat production in 2000 is unchanged from last year's crop but is below the average of the past five years. By contrast, coarse grains output is set to rise thanks to a record maize crop expected. In Canada, where the harvest is just starting, wheat output is set to fall below the 1999 level and the average of the last five years. The coarse grains crop could rise marginally. |
