Production prospects for the 2026/27 season are dampened by weather uncertainties associated with the predicted emergence of the El Niño phenomenon and sector profitability constraints. As a result, global rice output is forecast to fall 1.6 percent below the 2025/26 high to 552.4 million tonnes.

Global soybean production in 2025/26 is predicted to set a fresh record of 432.3 million tonnes, as continued growth in Brazil and the Russian Federation will likely more than offset anticipated reductions in Argentina, India and North America.

FAO's latest forecast for global cereal production in 2026/27 remains broadly unchanged from the previous month, as improved prospects for maize have offset downward revisions to the wheat forecast. Pegged at 2 983 million tonnes, the revised outlook stands 1.9 percent below the all-time high of 2025 but would still rank as the second largest output on record.
