Abstract

Understanding of the supply and demand for ancient grains is hampered by limited availability of national data on quantities produced, consumed, and traded over time. This limitation is compounded by thin markets for the grains and the lack of price information that could be used to better understand the potential for future growth in consumer demand and substitution for other cereals. This chapter presents targeted information on the supply of selected ancient grains drawing upon international data sources. Supply of selected ancient grains, such as quinoa and sorghum has increased in the last decade, while supply of other grains, such as the millets or buckwheat, has stagnated or declined.
