The harvest of basic grain in the Czech Republic will decrease by 9.5% y/y to 6,995,000 tons in 2016. The decrease is contributed to by a decrease in the expected yield per hectare by 6.6% to 5.54 ton and a decrease in the sowing area by 3.0% to 1,264,000 hectare. This stems from the first estimations of the harvest as of June 10, 2016 published by the Czech Statistical Office.
