Cereal and oilseed rape harvest - first estimates: 2025

Initial estimates of area, yield and production for winter and spring barley, wheat, oats and oilseed rape, for the 2025 harvest.


Oats production predicted to increase

Oats production estimates are not as reliable as those of other crops due to the limited data available at this early stage. But the early indication is that small increases in yield and a 7% increase in area may drive an increase in oats production to above the previous five-year average.
