The chart below gives information about the production of grains, measured in million metric tons, from the years 2010 to 2015, with projections until 2030.
The chart shows grain production data, measured in millions of metric
tons
, from 2010 to 2015, with projections to 2030. It covers four types of grain: wheat, barley, corn, and rice
.
Wheat has grown steadily from 100 million
metric tons
in 2010 to a projected 110 million
by 2030. Barley, which started at 50 million
tons
, is expected to double to 100 million
by 2030. Both grains have shown significant growth over the past two decades.
In contrast
, corn and rice
have remained relatively stable. Corn has fluctuated only slightly, from 34 million
metric tons
in 2010 to 35 million
by 2030. Rice
, which started at 24.7 million
metric tons
, is projected to reach 25.5 million
, showing minimal change, which is very encouraging for farmers.
Overall
, wheat and barley are the main drivers of overall
grain production increases due to
the fast growth of these crops, while
maize and rice
experience small fluctuations due to
their long growth periods.Submitted by interclass1982 on
