May 24 2004
This report provides further background on USDA official estimates released May 12, 2004.
USDA estimates 2004/05 European Union (EU-25) wheat production at a record 126.5 million tons, 19.9 million or 19 percent above last year's crop. Harvested area is estimated at 23.2 million hectares, 1.3 million or 6 percent more than 2003/04. The yield for this year's crop is estimated to be 5.45 tons per hectare, substantially above last year's level of 4.87 tons per hectare.
The yield outlook for grains in western Europe is good to very good. Winter wheat planting conditions were generally favorable last fall, with some reports of dryness in Germany and the United Kingdom (UK). Winter moisture was adequate, with the possible exception of deficits in northern France and the Benelux region. Wheat varieties in western Europe require intensive input use, coincident with periodic rainfall. Recent precipitation in northern France has alleviated some dryness concerns.
Current crop conditions in the central European countries are favorable, and a return to average yield and production levels is expected. Weather in central Europe has improved significantly from last season, when drought and winterkill greatly reduced production. The 2003/04 winter was mild, and there has been adequate precipitation over the past 8 to 10 weeks. Yields in the new member states are still expected to be only two-thirds of their western EU counterparts, as has been the case historically.
An EU policy change allowing farmers to reduce the amount of "set aside" land came too late for many farmers to change fall seeding plans. However, there may be a slight increase in spring wheat area, which is typically 3 to 4 percent of the total. Durum wheat is grown exclusively in western Europe, and production is forecast to be 9.1 million tons, up 9 percent from last year.
The tables below represent the details of the official USDA EU-25 wheat, coarse grains, and rice area, yield, and production totals. It is provided as a courtesy to USDA customers; countries are listed separately to allow greater understanding of grain and feed production in the European Union.
