Grain: World Markets and Trade

Approved by the World Agricultural Outlook Board - USDA

Low carryin stocks and lower wheat production (down nearly 4 million tons year-to-year) in Canada have reduced exportable supplies and enhanced trade opportunities for U.S. Hard Red Spring and Hard Red Winter. With domestic use currently forecast as little changed, stocks could be driven down to unprecedented low levels.

On the other hand, the coarse grains situation is rebounding. Barley production is recovering to more normal levels, despite less than optimal growing conditions and competition from oilseeds. Even so, exports are still forecast to fall due to tight carryin stocks, strong domestic demand for feed grains, and debate over the future of the Canadian Wheat Board’s authority covering barley exports.

For corn, record production spurred by high U.S. prices is expected to reduce imports to the lowest level in 8 years, despite record consumption. Feed use is slowly growing once again but industrial use—primarily for ethanol—is soaring. The largest oats crop in 11 years will allow Canada to dominate global trade and U.S. imports.

PRICES:

Shift in EU-27 Trade: Surging internal prices are causing major market changes. Production is currently estimated to be flat because of rain, frost, and drought in different parts of the Union. Carryin stocks are down this year mainly due to low intervention stocks, which are now virtually depleted compared to 9 million tons just a few years ago. This tightening situation has caused internal prices to reach record levels, which likely will reduce exports. Moreover, because the crop’s quality has deteriorated due to fungus and rust damage, EU-27 will need to import more milling wheat for blending. As a result, this should provide opportunity for U.S. exports, particularly for higher protein wheat such as HRS.

Imports

Domestic: For July, wheat prices for all classes climbed on reports of lower HRW production due to weather conditions, higher than average July sales, as well as quality concerns on the EU-27 crop. For the month, Hard Red Winter (HRW) rose $13 per ton, Hard Red Spring (HRS) rose $3, Soft Red Winter (SRW) rose $20, and Soft White (SWW) rose $16.

Domestic: U.S. #2/4 long grain milled rice quotes are down from last month to $406 per ton, FOB. The spread between comparable qualities of Thai and U.S. rice is $72 per ton compared to $69 per ton this time last year. California medium grain #1/4 prices are unchanged from last month at $510 per ton, FOB. TRADE CHANGES FOR 2007 Selected Exporters

• India is up 200,000 to 4.5 million tons supported by stronger production and high world prices.

• South Korea is expected to supply more to North Korea as food-aid for the balance of

this year and next year.

• Thailand is down 200,000 tons to 8.6 million tons reflecting fluctuations in the Baht and high freight costs.

Selected Importers

• Bangladesh is up 250,000 to 750,000 tons as adverse weather conditions create tighter supplies.

• Indonesia is down 100,000 tons to 1.9 million tons reflecting a slower shipment pace.

• Russia is down 140,000 to 180,000 tons due to import restrictions.

COARSE GRAINS: WORLD MARKETS AND TRADE MONTHLY HIGHLIGHTS: Poor Corn Outlook for Southeast Europe Opens the Door for U.S. Corn Elsewhere: This year’s corn production is down for much of southeast Europe, affecting exports by Balkan countries and driving up EU-27 imports. Although good crops in Spain, normally the largest EU importer, and abundant supplies of feed-quality wheat may mitigate some EU-27 import needs, additional corn is likely to be sourced from Argentina and Brazil. This could, in turn, reduce exportable supplies available to their other markets. The United States seems poised to benefit the most, either directly or indirectly, by backfilling those two countries. Outstanding U.S. export sales of nearly 15 million tons (old and new crop) and the unavailability of Southern Hemisphere new crop supplies for the next several months suggest that U.S. corn has a wide open window of opportunity.

Sorghum (Texas Gulf) Corn

Domestic: July export bids for U.S. #2 yellow corn averaged $147, down $20 per ton from last month. Improved weather in key growing regions and the USDA June acreage report showing better corn prospects by nearly 10 million tons drove prices down. However, trade has been volatile in reaction to mixed weather news, so late July Gulf bids moved upward (and have continued to do so into August) on strong corn export sales, tightness in global feed grain supplies, and poor crops across much of Europe. TRADE CHANGES IN 2007/2008 Selected Exporters

• United States corn is raised by 3.5 million tons to 54.5 million, the sixth highest ever,

because of shortfalls in global feed grain supplies.

• Brazil corn is up by 500,000 tons to a record 7.0 million tons in light of strong demand from Europe, which has a poor crop and prefers biotech-free corn.

• Russia corn is cut by two-thirds to 100,000 tons with diminished crop prospects.

• Serbia corn is slashed to just 200,000 tons (down 80 percent) as the crop is in very poor

condition and exports are banned.



August 2007

• Canada barley is down 300,000 tons to 1.4 million due to lowered production.

• Argentina sorghum is up by 100,000 tons to 800,000 in light of shipments and export

registrations. • United States sorghum raised by 900,000 tons to 5.0 million due to strong demand for

GMO-free feed from the EU-27. Selected Importers

• EU-27 corn soars by 2.5 million tons to 6.0 million, a record for the EU-27 (and the highest in over 20 years).

• China barley is cut 200,000 tons to 1.8 million as high prices pressure brew masters to

find substitute inputs for beer making. • United States barley is dropped 150,000 tons to 300,000 tons due to rebounding

production and tight supplies in Canada. • EU-27 sorghum is increased by 750,000 tons to 1.0 million in light of import

registrations and increased demand.

TRADE CHANGES IN 2006/2007 Selected Exporters

• Argentina corn is raised 300,000 tons to 14.3 million in light of continued strong shipments. New crop sales, however, remain unchanged because of current government actions to limit export registrations.

• Brazil corn is raised 750,000 tons to 6.5 million as sales and shipments to Europe

accelerate.

• Serbia corn is cut by 200,000 tons to 1.0 million as a result of slow shipments in light of a poor new crop.

• Argentina sorghum raised 300,000 tons to 900,000 tons due to increased shipments and

export registrations to EU-27. • United States sorghum is raised 200,000 to 4.0 million in light of increased feed

demand from EU-27.



August 2007

Selected Importers

• Egypt corn is up 300,000 tons to 4.6 million (and a similar change is made to 2007/08) as the poultry industry continues its recovery.

• Morocco corn is up 200,000 tons to a record 1.6 million based on the pace of shipments

from Argentina and the United States.

• Venezuela corn soars by 400,000 tons to 500,000 based on recent sales and shipments from the United States.

• Saudi Arabia barley is cut 500,000 tons to 5.5 million because of a lower import pace

and limited available supplies from exporters.

• EU-27 sorghum is up 300,000 tons to 900,000 tons based on the pace of shipments and sales from Argentina and United States.
