Grain production has fallen sharply in Turkey
According to the Turkish Statistical Institute (TUIK), the country’s gross wheat harvest in 2025 has fallen to 17.9 million tons, a 13.7% decrease compared to last year.
Barley production fell by 25.9% to 6.0 million tons. Corn harvests also fell to 8.5 million tons (-4.9% compared to last year).
Due to the poor harvest, Turkey will be forced to increase grain imports. In the first four months of the current season, Turkey imported 1,432,300 tons of wheat, a 28% increase compared to the same period last year.
