Canada Aims To Boost Wheat Exports To Ease World Shortage

Canada will export more wheat, cut domestic milling, reduce allocation for industrial use, and prioritize rail transport for export. Farmers urged to raise yields for the next years as shortages persist. Citizens asked to cut consumption and waste, especially of wheat products, to aid relief. Britain has already endured diet cuts, and Canadians are urged to join in easing urgent global needs.
