Rye: Situation and outlook
Ottawa, Canada
June 2, 2006

Source: Agriculture and Agrifood Canada Bi-weekly Bulletin Volume 19 Number 8

SUMMARY

World production of rye has decreased significantly over the last several decades, due to a steady decline in food and feed uses. Canadian production and exports of rye have also declined significantly since the early 1980s. For 2006-2007, Canadian farm prices for rye are forecast to increase, due to lower Canadian rye production and higher coarse grain prices. In addition, policy reform for rye in the European Union (EU) has removed some of the incentives to produce rye in the EU, which is expected to support rye prices and improve export opportunities for Canada, particularly in the US and Japan.
