Turkey Wheat Output Seen Rebounding After Drought-Hit 2025

Turkey’s wheat harvest is poised for a sharp recovery from last year’s crop-ravaging droughts, potentially curbing the outlook for imports from one of the world’s largest wheat buyers.

Output may rise about 20% to roughly 22 million tons in 2026, according to officials familiar with preliminary assessments, who asked not to be identified because the forecasts haven’t been released yet by the government. That would bring production close to a record 22.6 million tons seen in 2015. The agriculture ministry declined to comment.
