About This Dataset
Countries by Wheat Production 2024
China and India together grow more than a third of the world's wheat, but almost all of it feeds their own populations. Russia is the figure that moves global prices: it is consistently the largest exporter, so its harvest determines what importers across North Africa and the Middle East pay. France, eighth by volume, is the European Union's main exporter.
