 Unfavourable crop prospects and food supply shortfall
|
NORTH AMERICA: Despite generally favourable weather conditions so far this winter, latest information points to a reduced wheat output in 2005 in the United States, as the area sown to the main winter crop has been reduced by 4 percent compared to the previous year. The main 2005 crops in Canada have still to be sown but early indications point to a possible decrease in output this year due to reduced plantings and expected yields. |
