Cereals
The 2025/26 EU cereals gross manufacturing is estimated 4.1% above the 5-year common (at 285.4 million t). In 2025/26, good climate circumstances for winter crops are noticed thus far in central and northern EU in addition to the Iberian Peninsula, with significantly beneficial circumstances in some jap EU nations. Nevertheless, persistent drought in areas corresponding to Beglium and France impacts spring and summer season crops, whereas extreme rain impacts winter crops in Italy. EU cereals space is forecast to extend by 2.4% in 2025/26 though remaining 2% beneath the 5-year common, pushed by tender wheat and durum wheat, whereas maize, barley, and oats areas lower barely. Yield enhancements are forecast for all cereals. EU tender wheat gross manufacturing is forecast at 129.2 million t (4.2% above the 5-year common), maize at 64.9 million t (3% above the 5-year common), and barley at 53.7 million t (5.1% above the 5-year common).
The world market outlook for 2025/26 depicts a rebound in wheat commerce pushed by rising international manufacturing and demand from Asia, whereas international maize commerce is predicted to see minimal progress resulting from low import demand. In 2025/26, the anticipated elevated home manufacturing may end in an improved EU cereals commerce steadiness. The exports are anticipated to extend by about 26% year-on-year (1.8% beneath the 5-year common). The imports are anticipated to say no by about 19% year-on-year (12% beneath the 5-year common), because the improved EU home manufacturing may fulfill a bigger share of the home demand. In contrast, the 2024/25 EU cereals imports are to be about 17% above the 5-year common because of the decrease home manufacturing. In 2025/26, home demand will not be anticipated to vary considerably from the earlier 12 months. Animal feed, the primary outlet for home manufacturing, is predicted to stay broadly steady, reflecting a slightly stagnating EU animal manufacturing (apart from poultry meat manufacturing). Using cereals for industrial functions can be anticipated to stay steady.
Oilseeds
The 2025/26 EU oilseeds manufacturing is forecast nearly 12% increased year-on-year (4% above the 5-year common), at 31.2 million t. The restoration is pushed by rapeseed and sunflower seed, whereas soybean seed manufacturing is forecast to say no. 2025/26 oilseeds space is predicted to say no by about 1.5%, particularly sunflower and soybean seeds. The declining space is compensated by bettering yields thanks to appropriate climate circumstances. EU protein crops manufacturing is forecast at 4.8 million t in 2025/26 (- 9% year-on-year, however 4% above the 5-year common). The manufacturing decline is predicted to be pushed by subject peas and broad beans. In 2025/26, EU protein crops imports stay 3% beneath the 5-year common, whereas exports decline 2% beneath the 5-year common.
In 2025/26, the worldwide oilseed manufacturing is predicted to achieve 692 million t (+ 2% year-on-year), pushed by a restoration of sunflower seed manufacturing after a weak 2024/25, with notable expansions within the Black Sea area. The 2025/26 EU manufacturing of oilseed meals is predicted to achieve 29.9 million t (+4% year-on-year), in step with the rise of seeds manufacturing (+20% in sunflower meal manufacturing and +4% in rapeseed meal manufacturing). Soybean meal manufacturing is predicted to stay fairly steady at 11.5 million t. The 2025/26 EU manufacturing of vegetable oils is forecast at 16.3 million t (round + 6% year-on-year and a pair of% above the 5-year common). EU consumption of vegetable oils retains following a declining development (12% beneath the 5-year common) as use of palm oil (representing 12% of complete vegetable oil use) continues its downward development. The 2025/26 EU imports of vegetable oils are anticipated to say no (- 6% year-on-year) because of the anticipated discount of palm oil imports and the upper home manufacturing of oilseeds. EU exports are forecast to stay in step with the 5-year common at about 2.6 million t in 2025/26.
