Cereals Canada has released the 2023 New Wheat Crop Report, which provides a quality and functionality update to domestic and global customers of Canadian wheat.
Despite a challenging growing season that led to variable yields and below-average production, Canada produced another top-quality wheat crop. It had excellent quality in all wheat classes.
Most of it graded No. 2 or better and there was average to higher-than-average protein content. Over 95 per cent of the Canada Western Red Spring crop graded No. 1 and No. 2, with average protein content. Over 80 per cent of Canada Western Amber Durum graded No. 1 and No. 2, with protein content higher than average.
