The United Nations (UN) says that the European
Union (EU) will boost the recovery strategy in the world wheat production
in 2013-2014, by lifting the industry with about 20 million tones of grains.
The UN Food
and Agriculture Organization (FAO), said that early prospects for 2013
cereal production points to increased world wheat output and by contributing
largely to this outlook is an estimated 4-5 per cent increase in the winter
wheat area in the European Union where, additionally, winter wheat conditions
have been generally favourable so far.

recalls that EU is the world's top wheat producer, ahead of China and India.
The FAO also highlighted that prospects are
"satisfactory" in Russia and Ukraine, where winter plantings had
remained in line with the previous year's levels.
Moisture conditions, FAO noted are somewhat improved in the
region, except for areas of southern Russia, an important source of export
supplies, which was worst affected by drought last year.
Equally, prospects are reported favourable in China, boosted
by a higher minimum purchase price which has encouraged seedings, as said by FAO,
to allay the fears from some other observers earlier in the winter of potential
damage from unusually cold temperatures.
In India, plantings are around last year's good level, and
another bumper crop is in prospect, the organization said, raising the
drought-hit US as the exception to the upbeat picture.

I am cool with the page and fine with it being an open page. I only bring it up because there was recently a thread on the page discussing the open nature of the page. During that thread it was pointed out that the church opted not to operate a facebook page and so several congregants began and administer the page.
