Corn harvest up in Kyrgyzstan, wheat and barley yields decline
Kyrgyzstan’s 2025 grain harvest declined year-on-year, with lower overall yields and productivity, according to official data. While wheat, barley and sugar beet output fell, gains in corn, vegetables, and fruit crops helped support food security. Yield trends will guide 2026 sowing plans.
According to the National Statistics Committee, most grain crops in Kyrgyzstan were harvested in the 2025 season, but the total gross yield fell below last year’s level. Average grain productivity also decreased.
Growth was observed in corn for grain, rice, vegetables, fruit and berry crops, and melons. At the same time, yields of wheat, barley, sugar beet, tobacco, cotton, oilseeds, pulses, and potatoes declined.
Analysts note that the drop in yields of some key crops was influenced by weather conditions and other factors affecting the agricultural sector. Nonetheless, positive trends in corn, vegetables, and fruit and berry crops indicate that the country’s potential for food security remains intact.
The Ministry of Agriculture emphasized that yield data will be taken into account when planning sowing campaigns and supporting farmers in 2026.
