Soft wheat exports from the European Union and Britain in the 2020/21 season that started on 1 July have reached 7.84 million tonnes, official EU data has revealed.
The data was due to cover the period up to 8 November, but the European Commission specified in a note that figures only ran to 6 November due to an ongoing technical issue.
The exports were 24% below the volume cleared by 10 November last year, the data showed.
