France: Winter barley output forecast at 9.34 mln tonnes this year

France's agriculture ministry issued its first forecast for French output of winter barley, seeing production of 9.34 mln tonnes this year - a rise of more than 1.1 mln tonnes year on year, and despite some setback to "optimal" yield prospects from rain shortfalls and frost too, Agrimoney.com reported on June 13.

Still, yields are expected to be markedly higher than last year, boosted by raised sowings.

The harvest forecast is marginally below the 9.44 mln tonnes French winter barley crop expected by Coceral.

However, the ministry's estimate of a 6.30-tonnes-per-hectare yield is well above a Mars forecast of 5.76 tonnes per hectare.
