Global prices for wheat and coarse grains are higher and supplies tighter than they have been for a generation, and these conditions likely will persist for some time.

CONT

The Canadian Wheat Board is responsible for all sales of wheat and coarse grains made either by direct sales to overseas buyers, or by sales with accredited agents of the Board for export.

CONT

Although world trade declined global consumption of wheat and coarse grains rise.

Almost all wheat grown in Canada is spring wheat. However, a small amount of hard red winter wheat is grown in Alberta, and soft white winter wheat is grown in Eastern Canada, mainly in Ontario. Of the spring wheat grown, approximately 80 to 90% is of the hard red type, the remainder being mainly amber durum. Small quantities of both white and soft red spring wheats are grown mainly for domestic consumption.

La presque totalité du blé cultivé au Canada est du blé de printemps. On trouve cependant en Alberta quelques superficies ensemencées en blé de force rouge d'hiver, et quelques autres dans l'Est, notamment en Ontario, ensemencées en blé tendre blanc d'hiver. Environ 80 à 90% du blé de printemps cultivé entrent dans la classe des blés de force roux (CWRS), le reste étant surtout du blé dur ambré (CWAD). On cultive de petites quantités de blé tendre, blanc ou roux de printemps, surtout pour la consommation intérieure.

The Canadian Wheat Board is the sole marketing agency for wheat, oats, and barley grown on the Prairies and destined for export or for human consumption in Canada. The Board may also market these grains in domestic feed grain markets when additional supplies are required, but producer sales to the domestic feed grain market, handled by the private trade, are usually adequate to meet these requirements.

La Commission canadienne du blé est le seul organisme qui commercialise le blé, l'orge et l'avoine produits dans les prairies et destinés à l'exportation ou à la consommation intérieure.
