What the source says
World cereal production in the 2026/27 season is expected to drop by 2 percent year on year to 2 982 million tonnes, led by declining wheat harvests, according to FAO’s latest Cereal Supply and Demand Brief, also released Friday.
Checked: the figure 2,982 million tonnes is stated in this passage. If it does not match, the extraction is wrong and we want to know.
