The cereal supply and demand balances included in this report present a subset of data from the FAO/GIEWS Country Cereal Balance System (CCBS). The CCBS is a is a unique database created and continuously kept up to date by the Global Information and Early Warning System on Food and Agriculture (GIEWS) and Basic Foodstuffs teams of the Markets and Trade Division, with data since 1980. It contains annual supply and utilization balances for the main cereals produced and consumed for over 220 countries/areas, from which (sub) regional and global aggregates are drawn. This report is based on information available as of February 2023.

While coarse grain markets usually focus on maize, here we will look at feed and food consumption for barley, sorghum, oats and millet, highlighting trends and developments.
The United Nations General Assembly declared 2023 the International Year of Millets, with millet crops growing on arid lands with minimal inputs and being highly resilient to changes in climate. In 2022/23, global millet production totalled 30.8m t, with India being by far the largest producer. With crops mainly consumed domestically, global traded volumes are negligible.
A number of international experts will look at the year ahead, highlighting potential risks and challenges over the coming months with respect to production, consumption and trade prospects.

- En quoi le blé est-il un outil stratégique ?
- Face aux multiples crises et conflits, pourquoi est-il pertinent de penser ou repenser la gouvernance du blé ?
- Face à l'impact du changement climatique sur la production de blé, que peut-il être mis en place ?

The first epidemics of a deadly wheat fungus could have occurred due to widespread cultivation of varieties missing a specific gene. The loss of a single gene in wheat makes it vulnerable to a fungus called Pyricularia oryzae, which causes a highly destructive disease that emerged in Brazil in 1985 and has since spread to South America, Bangladesh and Zambia. The finding was published in Nature Plants.

Early prospects point to strong wheat crop in 2023. The benchmark index of international food commodity prices declined in February for the eleventh consecutive month, albeit only marginally, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) reported today. The FAO Cereal Price Index remained virtually unchanged from January. International wheat prices rose marginally during the month, as concerns over dry conditions in the United States of America and robust demand for supplies from Australia were largely countered by a strong competition among exporters. International rice prices eased by 1.0 percent due to a slowdown in trading activities in most major Asian exporters, whose currencies also depreciated against the United States dollar.

FAO’s latest forecast for world cereal production in 2022 has been revised upward by 9 Mt this month, now standing at 2 774 Mt, still 1.3 percent lower year-on-year. The bulk of the upward revision concerns rice and, to a lesser extent, coarse grains that largely reflect the incorporation of recently released official figures. Regarding rice, February assessments by Indian officials report a more contained impact of uneven monsoon rains on main-crop output, which coupled with a pronounced increase in secondary crop plantings (just concluded), overturned expectations of an Indian production decline this season. Output was also upgraded for several other countries, most notably Sri Lanka and Thailand. By contrast, official reports in the United Republic of Tanzania suggest that poor rains resulted in a greater output reduction than previously envisaged, while provincial authorities in Pakistan’s Punjab indicate a lower area realization, adding to the output losses endured by the country as a result of severe floods, particularly in Sindh. Put together, these changes raised FAO’s forecast of global rice production in 2022 by 4.9 Mt to 517 Mt (milled basis), which while being 1.5 percent below the 2021 all-time high would still constitute an above-average harvest. At 2 780 Mt, the forecast for global cereal utilization in 2022/23 is ...

Avant la pandémie de la Covid-19, l’Organisation des Nations unies pour l’alimentation et l’agriculture (FAO) et le Programme alimentaire mondial (PAM) estimaient déjà qu’au sein des pays arabes plus de 55 millions de personnes, sur une population de près de 457 millions, étaient sous-alimentées. A cause de cette pandémie, la guerre russo-ukrainienne et les violences et l’escalade des conflits dans certains pays arabes depuis quelques années, la faim a pris davantage de l’ampleur.

PARIS: Faut-il stocker davantage d'eau, en consommer moins, renoncer à certaines cultures ? Le "plan de sobriété sur l'eau" évoqué samedi par le président Emmanuel Macron au salon de l'Agriculture résonne comme une évidence douloureuse pour le monde agricole.
La sécheresse historique de l'été 2022 et, pire, l'hiver sec qui a suivi, a fait de l'eau, denrée longtemps abondante dans le climat tempéré de la France, un bien plus rare qu'il convient d'économiser et de partager.

Un an après le début de l’invasion russe de l’Ukraine, les cours mondiaux des céréales sont retombés à leur niveau d’avant le conflit, mais au vu de la radicalisation des positions de la Russie et des alliés de l’Ukraine, les craintes d’une réduction significative des livraisons de blé de la mer Noire refont surface, mais tempérées par la profusion de blé promise par des récoltes record en Russie et en Australie dans un marché très concurrentiel où les grains russes, vendus nettement moins chers que les blés français ou américains, dominent les échanges.
