View PricingLeading Wheat Producer in the World
China is the leading wheat producer in the world, contributing to a significant portion of global wheat production. Wheat has been cultivated in China for thousands of years, and it remains an essential crop for the nation's food security.
China's wheat production is mainly concentrated in the northern regions, including provinces such as Henan, Shandong, and Hebei. These areas provide favorable conditions for wheat cultivation, with fertile soils, adequate water resources, and a temperate climate. Additionally, the government has implemented various policies and initiatives to support wheat farmers in terms of subsidies, technology transfer, and research and development.
The country's agricultural practices have evolved over time, adopting modern machinery, improved seeds, and advanced irrigation systems. This has led to significant increases in wheat yields and overall production. Furthermore, China has a vast agricultural workforce that contributes to the efficient cultivation and harvesting of wheat crops.
China's demand for wheat is driven by its large population, as it is a staple food in the Chinese diet. Wheat is consumed in various forms, including bread, noodles, dumplings, and steamed buns. Additionally, Chinese cuisine incorporates a wide range of wheat-based products, making it an essential ingredient in the country's culinary traditions.
Although China is the leading wheat producer, it is also the largest wheat consumer in the world. The domestic demand for wheat often exceeds the production capacity, resulting in the need for imports to meet the shortfall. Factors such as population growth, changing dietary preferences, and urbanization contribute to the rising demand for wheat and wheat-based products in the country.
China's agricultural policies prioritize self-sufficiency in staple crops such as wheat, and the government aims to minimize dependence on imports. However, the nation also participates in global wheat trade, both as an exporter and importer. China exports wheat to neighboring countries and regions, particularly in Asia, and imports wheat from countries such as the United States, Canada, and Australia.
As the leading wheat producer, China plays a critical role in influencing global wheat prices and supply. Fluctuations in China's production and demand can have significant impacts on the international wheat market, potentially affecting food security and prices in other countries.

In 2022, wheat price growth is forecast to slow down with sufficient global production and falling demand for feed grains in the U.S. and the EU. Global wheat output is set to remain at the 2021’s level of approx. 777M tons.
The average annual wheat price in the U.S. is forecast to drop by 2% y-o-y to $250 per ton in 2022, falling on reduced domestic consumption coupled with stable supply worldwide. The market balance will be buoyed by production gains in Argentina and the EU that will offset decreasing output in Brazil and Paraguay.
This year, harvests in the EU, the U.S., the UK, Argentina, Morocco and Ukraine are expected to increase, leading to a growth in wheat production. Even though global stockpiles of grains will remain high, there are boosted expectations for inflation due to forecasts of record demand and increased prices for other cereal grains. The rising global population and bioethanol production are key factors leading to this growth in demand for wheat. Another driving factor is the emerging trend in the EU to use more wheat in animal feed rather than barley.
Global wheat production will reach 758.3 million tons in 2020, showing a slight decrease of 0.5 percent over the previous year's highs and still at a fairly high level.
