The emergence of biofuel and other industrial uses adds a further important dimension to demand, which will remain significant in the future. On a global scale, food remains the most important use of cereals: more than 1.2 billion tonnes (Bt) of food demand is projected for 2023, which is 150 million tonnes (Mt) more than in 2011-13 (Figure 1.6). Feed demand is the fastest growing sector, in line with shifting diet preferences. Almost 160 Mt additional feed will be needed by the end of the decade.
