Why It Matters

La production de maïs grain est au plus bas depuis 1976. La baisse est attribuée à la réduction des surfaces et aux conditions climatiques extrêmes.

Du jamais-vu depuis 50 ans. La récolte de maïs pour l'année 2026, quasiment terminée en France, est en chute de 50 % par rapport à l'année précédente, selon les estimations de la principale association de producteurs rendues publiques mardi 20 octobre. La production de maïs grain, à quelque 7 millions de tonnes, est au plus bas depuis 1976, en raison d'une baisse des surfaces cultivées mais surtout de la sècheresse et des canicules, dont celle de fin juin particulièrement nocive pour les plants, ont indiqué lors d'une conférence de presse les responsables de l'Association des producteurs de maïs en France (AGPM).

"Nous avons franchi un cap supplémentaire. Cette année, la catastrophe est arrivée", a déclaré Franck Laborde, exploitant dans les Pyrénées-Atlantiques et président de l'association, rattachée à la FNSEA, le syndicat agricole dominant. Mi-octobre, le service des statistiques du ministère de l'Agriculture, Agreste, estimait la récolte à 7,3 millions de tonnes (contre 13,6 millions de tonnes en 2025). Le cabinet d'analyse Argus Media prévoit lui 6,9 millions de tonnes. La perte financière est évaluée par l'AGPM à 2,5 milliards d'euros pour les exploitants sur leur activité maïs.

L'association appelle le gouvernement à "agir sans délai pour sauver les exploitations et assurer la campagne 2027". Sur un coût estimé à 900 euros par hectare, elle demande un soutien de 450 euros par hectare, qui seraient à la fois "des dépenses évitées et une aide en espèces sonnantes et trébuchantes", selon les mots de Franck Laborde.
