"The U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization ... Its most updated records, discussed in its Cereal Supply and Demand Brief, show that the world’s cereal crops, the staple of food production globally, continue to set new records even has the Earth modestly warms.
Cereal grains are grown in greater quantities and provide more food energy globally than any other type of crop, with rice, wheat, and maize (corn), accounting for three quarters of all cereal grain production. The FAO’s Brief reports:
FAO’s forecast for world cereal production in 2023 has been revised upward by 13.2 million tonnes (0.5 percent) this month and is set to reach a record high of 2836 million tonnes. This represents a 1.2 percent (33.3 million tonnes) increase from the 2022 level. The revision is primarily the result of better-than-previously envisaged maize outputs in several key producing countries, while more modest upward revisions were made to the global barley and wheat production forecasts. ..."
