North American imports are also increasingly becoming popular, in 2019 around 425,038 metric ton of wheat were imported from the United States. Brazil has the potential to turn into a wheat exporting country from an importing one. Introduction of new-age technology, efficient utilization of available land area, and support of public policy will ensure the growth of wheat production in the region during the forecast period.
