Ecuador: Grain and Feed Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

As Ecuador’s economy stabilizes and becomes more open to trade, wheat consumption is expected to trend upward. Ecuador is forecast to import a record level of wheat in 2019/20. Rice imports will remain constant as domestic production continues to recover from low yields in 2016/17. Yellow corn production in 2019/20 is forecast to decrease due to a reduction in area planted and uncertainties in domestic agricultural policy and prices.
