The projected output for U.S. wheat in 2026 has been revised downward by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), placing it on track to be the lowest since 1970. The agency's latest forecast estimates production at 1.536 billion bushels.
This figure represents a decrease of 7 million bushels compared to the USDA's June forecast. The reduction indicates a continuing trend of declining wheat production in the United States.
