According to the report, the U.S. crop may total over 2.7 billion bushels, only three percent below 1981's record high harvest. Although the U.S. wheat crop amounts to one-sixth of the world crop, the United States provides nearly half the 100 million metric tons of wheat that flows in international trade. Because weather reduced crop prospects in Australia and the USSR, USDA econo mists estimate the world wheat crop at 445 million metric tons, off two percent from 1981-82. Trade, spurred by expanded use in many countries, may break the 100 million ton mark, and total world use could even outrun production, causing a slight downturn in world stocks. Wheat exports from the United States may match last year's record high 1.77 million bushels (48.1 million metric tons ) . Due to Chinese demand, a record 15 million tons, Soviet wheat imports of nearly 20 million tons, and weather damage to India's crop, econo mists expect the strong ex ports of U.S. ; wheat to continue.
