From 2024 to 2028, the forecasted wheat supply ranges from 967 to 988 thousand metric tons, showing a consistent annual increase. This signifies a yearly growth in wheat supply, projected to increase by approximately 5 thousand metric tons each year, reflecting a steady and predictable upward trend.
Year-on-year, the following variations are observed:
- 2024 to 2025: Approx. +0.52%
- 2025 to 2026: Approx. +0.51%
