This is just 5.6 million tons less than the record of the previous year and 12 tons more than the next best season.</p> <p><strong>Wheat production</strong></p> <p>The International Grains Council is crediting the increase to the rainy season in Europe, especially around the Black Sea region. The most notable jumps in production happened in the European Union and Ukraine. Argentina and Australia, however, are expected to see a decrease.The 2017-2018 season may prove good for buying wheat on a large scale, as the prices will be reduced, even if we take into account the seasonal decrease of buying wheat during the winter.</p>
