Earlier Report Observations

Between 2018 and 2022, the wheat and meslin flour and cereals market in the Americas expanded from 45.7 million tonnes to 47.4 million tonnes, reaching its highest point in 2022. The increase in 2021 aligned with a global peak in production, while the substantial growth in 2022 was underpinned by broad agricultural inflation, export restrictions in key producer countries like Kazakhstan, and rising consumer demand for healthy alternatives such as organic and gluten-free flours.

Following the 2022 peak, market volume eased to 47.0 million tonnes in 2023, mirroring a worldwide contraction in exports and a price adjustment after the previous surge. Despite this moderation, the market remained above the levels seen between 2018 and 2020, reflecting sustained underlying demand.
