Canada Set to Retain Position as World’s Third-Largest Wheat Exporter

Increased production in the prairie provinces bolsters Canada's wheat exports, outpacing Australia and trailing only Russia and the EU.

Canada is projected to maintain its rank as the third-largest wheat exporter for the 2024-25 crop year, following Russia and the European Union.
The country's wheat production has increased by 1.8% year-over-year, with improved yields in Western Canada mitigating previous drought impacts.
Canada exported approximately 21.8 megatonnes of wheat to 65 countries in 2023-24, with major markets including China, Indonesia, and the United States.
Global wheat demand is rising, with significant growth in North America, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia, supporting Canada's export expansion.
Research and development in crop genetics have helped Canadian farmers improve wheat yields despite challenging weather conditions.
