Earlier Report Observations

From 2018 to 2020, the triticale market volume in Germany increased from 2.15 million tonnes to a peak of 2.39 million tonnes in 2019, then stabilized near 2.39 million tonnes in 2020. The crop's noted resilience to drier spring conditions supported stable production during this period.

After 2020, the market volume contracted, falling to 2.14 million tonnes in 2021 and 2.09 million tonnes in 2023. A key driver in 2023 was a 14% reduction in the planting area in Lower Saxony, a major region, linked to a decline in pig herds as triticale is primarily used for feed grain, which reduced domestic production.

In 2024, triticale imports rose to 408 thousand tonnes. Concurrent factors included high regional yields due to low disease pressure and the ongoing influence of broader economic and legislative cost drivers like inflation and supply chain transparency requirements on agricultural inputs and demand.
