Malaysia: Grain and Feed Annual

Malaysia's grain and feed demand is projected to strengthen in MY2026/27, driven by continued expansion in the poultry sector and steady food consumption growth. Corn consumption is expected to increase, supported by rising feed demand and protein substitution toward poultry, sustaining high import requirements. Wheat consumption is also expected to grow, reflecting expansion in the food processing sector and stronger demand for convenient and healthier wheat-based products. With no domestic production for corn and wheat, imports will continue to rise to meet demand, while exports remain limited and largely driven by re-exports. Rice production is forecast to show only modest growth, reinforcing Malaysia's continued reliance on imports to balance consumption, with stocks maintained at manageable levels.
