PARIS- Soft wheat exports from the European Union in the 2020/21 season that started last July had reached 24.46 million tonnes by May 30, data published by the European Commission showed on Wednesday.

That was down from 32.68 million tonnes cleared by the same week last season, the data showed.

The publication of the weekly data had been delayed from Monday due to a technical issue.

EU 2020/21 barley exports had reached 7.01 million tonnes, against 7.03 million a year ago, while EU 2020/21 maize imports stood at 13.34 million tonnes, down from 18.66 million.

Since Jan. 1, the European Commission’s data has covered the EU’s 27 countries only, whereas previous figures up to Dec. 31 covered both the EU-27 and Britain.
