EU : 2025/26 soft wheat exports up
EU soft wheat exports reached 19.28 million tons by April 24, up 6% year-on-year. Romania led exports, followed by France and Poland. Barley exports surged 80% annually. However, data gaps for several countries and possible reporting errors in Romanian figures may affect accuracy, the European Commission noted.
PARIS: European Union soft wheat exports for the 2025/26 season reached 19.28 million metric tons by April 24, a slight increase from 19.01 million tons the previous week and up 6 percent from the same point in 2024/25, European Commission data showed on Tuesday.
The Commission said that due to technical issues the report included data until Friday, April 24 only. Data usually covers up to the Sunday.
Romania remained the leading EU soft wheat exporter with 6.35 million tons, followed by France at 4.92 million tons, Poland with 2.59 million tons, Lithuania at 1.86 million tons, and Germany at 1.68 million tons.
The Commission noted that export data for France was incomplete since the start of calendar year 2024, for Bulgaria and Ireland since the start of the 2023/24 marketing year and for Greece since January 2026. Unusually high Romanian durum wheat export figures for 2025/26 may be linked to a reporting error, it said.
EU barley exports for 2025/26 were 7.95 million tons, up from 7.87 million tons the previous week and 80 percent higher than a year earlier.
