Abstract This report reviews long-term trends in cereal production and consumption in Weat Asia and North Africa (WANA) and describes the main wheat- and barley-based farming systems found in rainfed marginal en vironments of the WANA Region. The report then discusses the major policy influences on cereal production and consumption patterns and reviews historical patterns of technical change in cereal production in the region. Prospects for future growth in wheat and barley productivity, and the implications for planning and conducting agricultural research, are examined.
