The decline in revenue for industry farmers during the current period has primarily been driven by high global stocks and fierce international competition, compounded by climate volatility and challenging trade dynamics. High stocks of wheat and coarse grains are pressuring prices downward despite record domestic food use and demand for animal feed. Intense export competition from regions like the EU, Russia and Canada exacerbates this issue, making it difficult for US producers to maintain profit. Compounding the problem are climate and weather volatility, with increased instances of droughts and heat waves reducing yields and hindering production. Trade headwinds, including retaliatory tariffs and a strong US dollar, are also constraining exports, diminishing the competitiveness of US grain globally. Overall, industry revenue has dropped at a CAGR of 1.2% since 2020 to reach an expected $13.2 billion after a decrease of 6.3% in 2025. In addition to these external pressures, input costs remain a significant challenge for industry farmers. The persistently strong prices for fertilizers, pesticides and seeds, alongside increased agricultural wages and labor shortages, have elevated production expenses, straining profit as grain prices drop. Smaller and mid-sized farms are particularly affected, facing negative returns and low cash receipts. Some operations may be forced into consolidation if they are unable to absorb high costs. While some input prices, such as fuel and agrochemicals, have eased from huge spikes earlier in the current period, overall expenses continue to surpass commodity prices, eroding financial stability and forcing many producers to seek USDA program assistance to mitigate these challenges. Looking ahead, the wheat, barley, sorghum, oats and rye farming sector is expected to gradually recover as global stocks stabilize and demand grows, expanding at a CAGR of 0.9% to reach $13.8 billion in 2030. Easing supply chain disruptions and stabilizing input costs are expected to support this recovery. Future weakening of the US dollar stands to improve export competitiveness, offering some optimism for US producers. However, the recovery will vary across segments, with those benefiting from strong domestic demand or value-added products rebounding more quickly than those reliant on bulk exports.

This study shows the development of the price of cereals, the principal food since the 17th century, using the example of Berlin. The research was carried out by the Reich Statistical Office (Statistisches Reichsamt) and the Institut für Konjunkturforschung (German Institute for Economic Research) within the scope of a general historical study project focusing on German wholesale prices. Due to a lack of primary-source price lists for rye, wheat, barley, and oats for the whole period of examination, the respective currencies have been converted into German mark/Reichsmark per 1,000 kg in order to make a thorough comparison possible.

2021 is forecast to see global barley supplies outstripped by demand. This may lead to a sharp rise in grain prices. A substantial proportion of consumption growth is driven by the demand from China for barley-based feed, as China's livestock population continues to recover from the swine fever outbreak. Shortages in supply are expected due to the poor crop yield owing to the adverse weather conditions in Russia, Australia, Turkey and the UK.

The Grain Growing industry produces a variety of cereal grain crops, including wheat, barley, maize, oats and other grains. Fluctuating rainfall and grain prices have created a challenging operating environment, with revenue slumping in 2023-24 due to poor rainfall. Furthermore, regional factors, including high farm costs and forestry-focused land conversions, have negatively affected cattle herds. This has reduced demand from the downstream livestock market, particularly for wheat. However, grain's significant role in food manufacturing has supported the industry. Increasing demand for healthier and sustainably processed products like gluten-free and whole-grain bread, as well as emerging markets like craft beers, have boosted demand for grains – especially for barley, maize, oats and buckwheat. Overall, industry revenue has seen a mixed performance over the past five years. Despite yearly fluctuations, revenue is expected to remain at the same level it was at five years ago, totalling $768.2 million in 2024-25. This trend includes an anticipated jump of 4.7% in 2024-25. Industry profitability hinges on numerous factors, including input costs, global wheat prices, international demand and the New Zealand dollar’s value. Abating price competition from high grain-producing nations and rising input costs stemming from the Russia-Ukraine war, which has kept fertiliser prices elevated, have been the most significant factors that have affected profitability. High input costs have led to a drop in industry participation, leaving existing grain growers to achieve high profit on the back of high grain prices and falling industrywide wage costs. The promotion of healthy eating guidelines and frameworks is set to support revenue growth from downstream food manufacturing in the coming years, as is consumers’ rising preference for gluten-free and organic cereals. Meanwhile, with domestic grain prices projected to creep downwards over the next five years as production ramps up, and global wheat prices forecast to escalate even higher, the industry's export market is set to grow. However, ongoing, unpredictable weather conditions could potentially hinder the industry’s positive growth outlook. Overall, revenue is forecast to grow at an annualised 0.5% over the five years through 2029-30, to $786.3 million.
