French soft wheat sowing 82% complete by Nov. 27
French farmers had sown 82% of the expected soft wheat area for next year’s harvest by Nov. 27, compared with 74% a week earlier, farm office FranceAgriMer said on Friday.
Heavy rainfall in France over the past weeks has brought grain sowing virtually to a standstill in some parts of the European Union’s largest grain grower, which is likely to lead to a drop in yields, technical institute Arvalis has said.
Winter barley sowings were 92%, compared with 86% the previous week, FranceAgriMer said.
