U.S. Corn Exports (October-September)

U.S. Corn Exports Forecast to Tie Record

Strong foreign demand, a continued lack of competition, and abundant supplies are expected to brighten export prospects well into 2018/19 (Oct-Sep). U.S. exports are currently forecast at 62.5 million tons, tying the record from 2017/18.

Early season sales of new-crop corn have been robust. As of the end of September, sales were up sharply from a year ago, and now represent nearly a quarter of the current forecast. Strong sales in the early season do not necessarily lead to strong exports throughout the year, e.g. 2017/18. However, they do shed light on trade dynamics responding to the global feed grain market situation. Combined global wheat and barley production is forecast to decline 3 percent from a year ago due to damage from hot and dry weather, tightening exportable supplies available to the world market. This may have triggered the rush for corn purchases to ensure adequate alternatives in feed rations. U.S. exports are raised this month reflecting higher expected demand for Mexico, and exports for Russia are lowered due to a smaller crop. Moreover, developments surrounding the minimum freight rate in Brazil and the new tax scheme on agricultural exports including corn in Argentina add uncertainties to their export outlook. Much of Ukraine’s corn is expected to find a home in Europe where alternative feedstuffs are needed to mitigate the impact of smaller wheat and barley supplies. U.S. corn prices have remained competitive for much of 2018. With larger-than-anticipated stocks of old crop reported in USDA-NASS’s Grain Stocks and the forecast near-record new crop on the way, the United States has abundant supplies to meet rising global feed demand. For this year, at least, large early season sales bode well for another year of near-record exports.

WHEAT

WHEAT PRICES

Domestic: In contrast to the global situation, U.S. wheat prices were down in September on a slow pace of exports, plentiful supplies, and favorable weather conditions ahead of winter plantings. Hard Red Winter (HRW) declined $10/ton to $237, Soft Red Winter (SRW) was down $11/ton to $213, and Soft White Winter (SWW) weakened $4/ton to $231. Hard Red Spring (HRS) was down $15/ton to $249.

Source: IGC

OVERVIEW FOR 2018/19 Global wheat production and trade are down this month mainly from reduced crops in Australia and Russia. Imports are lowered for Azerbaijan, Bangladesh, and Nigeria. Exports are forecast down for Australia, while Russia is unchanged this month. The U.S. season-average farm price is unchanged at $5.10 per bushel.

Global: Exporter prices were mixed in September. Argentine, Canadian, EU, and U.S. prices were down, while Australian and Black Sea quotes rose. Australia’s drought has resulted in a smaller crop, leaving Australian wheat increasingly uncompetitive for exports, and therefore keeping supplies for domestic use. The price spread between U.S. and Black Sea narrowed as the United States has plentiful supplies, making it more competitive on the international wheat market.

MARKET FEATURES

Robust Russian Wheat Exports, in Spite of Smaller Crop Russia is off to a fast start in 2018/19 with exports to date already 30 percent more in the first 3 months than last year. Russian wheat exports are forecast at 35.0 million tons based on adequate supplies and strong global demand. Despite having lower production compared to last year’s record-setting crop, Russia’s wheat crop is still the third largest on record. Additionally, Russia has sufficient carryover supplies, resulting in the most competitively priced wheat for export. Due to poor weather conditions, many of the global wheat exporters have smaller crops and are expected to export less this year. Currently Australia is experiencing a drought which has led to more wheat being kept for domestic consumption instead of the export market. The European Union has a small crop due to dry conditions in northern growing regions during the key growing season. This has allowed Russia to gain more market share in Asia and Africa, which are traditionally supplied by these two exporters. With the supplies and prices to attract international buyers, Russia is poised to fill this international demand vacated by other wheat exporters. In addition to Russia’s ample supplies and ability to export large quantities of grain (similar to last year), it also renewed an export transportation subsidy for the new crop year. This would signal that Russia is prepared to continue supplying the global wheat market in the near future. As the year progresses, Russian exports are likely to slow based on winter weather conditions, which often make grain transportation challenging. This is expected to boost exports for other competitors (notably the United States and the European Union).

U.S. Wheat Exports Forecast to Rebound in 2018/19

Export Sales Down, but Rebound Expected: U.S. exports are expected to recover from a slow start at the beginning of the year as competitor supplies become tighter. Total commitments (accumulated exports plus outstanding sales) as of September 27 are down 19 percent from last year. This is primarily lower shipments of Hard Red Winter wheat, although Hard Red Spring and White are also down. Nevertheless, total U.S. exports are still forecast up with the expectation that a larger share of global demand will shift to U.S. wheat later in the year. Exports Slow to Several Key Markets: The country representing the largest drop in U.S. commitments from last year is China due to the 25 percent duty that has been levied against U.S. wheat. The next largest drop is exports to Mexico in light of stiff competition from Canada and Russia in recent months, leaving less demand for U.S. wheat. Russia’s torrid pace of exports in the first few months of the new marketing year has also taken a bite out of U.S. exports to several Asian countries, particularly Indonesia. Exports to Mexico and Indonesia are likely to improve later in the year as U.S. wheat becomes more competitively priced. Shipments to China are unlikely to pick up unless the duty against U.S. wheat is removed. On the other hand, wheat shipments to Iraq are off to a fast start this year and could provide a further boost to U.S. exports throughout the year.

Factors Influencing U.S. Competitiveness Later in the Marketing Year: Despite the weak early pace of U.S. exports, the continued rise in global consumption is a key factor supporting the U.S. export forecast. Food consumption of wheat continues to rise, more than offsetting reduced use for feeding. Consequently, global trade is down only slightly from last year’s record. Exports for most of the major U.S. wheat competitors are forecast lower, leaving an opportunity for U.S. wheat to play a key role in backfilling demand. The unrelenting pace of Russia’s exports has made U.S. wheat less competitive in recent months, but those exports are likely to slow in the next few months. Russian exports are normally front-loaded in the first half of the marketing year, which is likely to be the case in 2018/19. Russia is likely to keep a grip on nearby markets such as Egypt and Turkey, but its export competitiveness to Latin America and Africa could diminish later in the year. Similar to the U.S. wheat situation, exports for the European Union are also off to a slow start. The EU wheat crop is down significantly from last year and its prices have not been competitive with Black Sea wheat. Later in the year, however, the slowing Russian shipments should put the European Union in a better position to regain market share in Africa and the Middle East. Canada is the only major U.S. competitor expected to export more wheat this year. With protein in high supply in North America, Canadian wheat has been competitively priced and has won a larger share in some Latin American markets, particularly Brazil and Mexico. Going forward, this competition is likely to continue. In light of China’s retaliatory tariffs on U.S. wheat, Canada’s share of exports to China will likely continue to be strong. However, this could create opportunities for U.S. wheat elsewhere as more Canadian wheat is diverted to this destination. Australia is expected to have the lowest exports in about a decade as a result of widespread drought. Australia is largely priced out of international markets as some wheat is being diverted from export channels for domestic use. This could be a major opportunity for U.S. wheat to fill demand in Asian markets. For more information on Australia’s wheat production, see World Agricultural Production. Argentina is expecting another bumper crop and is expected to have very competitively priced wheat as a depreciated currency largely offsets the impact of the recently imposed export tax. Once its harvest arrives later this year, Argentina is likely to continue as the dominant supplier of wheat to Brazil. However, recent U.S. sales to Brazil could indicate a window to supply that market for a month or two before the Argentine crop reaches the market. Depending on the quality of Argentine wheat, U.S. and Canadian suppliers may also have an opportunity to supply higher protein wheat for blending. During peak export months (December through March), Argentina will likely seek out additional markets in Africa and Asia, partially filling in for reduced Australian exports.

RICE PRICES

Asian: Over the past month, Thai quotes continued to climb to $409/ton, supported by the

currency and improved prospects to export large volumes to the Philippines. Demand from

Southeast Asia was also a key factor in supporting Vietnamese quotes, now at $398/ton.

Pakistani quotes are relatively steady at $385/ton, whereas Indian quotes have become even

more competitive at $375/ton on slow buying interest. This is the lowest Indian quote in more

than a year and a half.

OVERVIEW FOR 2018/19 Global rice production is raised this month on a larger crop in India, partially offset by a reduction in the crop in Egypt. Nonetheless, production is still forecast lower than the prior year’s record. Global consumption is forecast marginally higher. Ending stocks are raised from last month. Trade is largely unchanged as higher imports for the Philippines are mostly offset by lower imports for China.

OVERVIEW FOR 2017/18

Global rice production and consumption are both adjusted marginally lower this month. Global ending stocks are raised. Global trade is nearly unchanged with offsetting changes.

MARKET FEATURES

Brazil Reasserts Role as Top South American Exporter

Brazil is the top Western Hemisphere rice producer and consumer. It is also a significant import

market, and in fact a net importer as recently as 2016 and 2017. However, this year with more

ample supplies, Brazil is reverting to its position as not only a net exporter but also as the top

South American supplier to the global market. Brazil is forecast to export 1 million tons (milled

basis) in 2018, declining to 850,000 tons in 2019 on rising competition from Paraguay, Guyana,

and Argentina. In the first 9 months of the year, nearly half of exports have been as paddy rice,

challenging U.S. export opportunities in Venezuela, Costa Rica, and Nicaragua. Brazilian milled

rice is mostly shipped to Latin America, whereas broken rice is destined for West Africa.

Record Egyptian Rice Imports amid Smallest Crop in 20 Years

Egypt is facing the prospect of record rice imports as a consequence of strictly enforced

limitations on area permitted for rice cultivation. Historically, Egypt has cultivated rice along the

Nile Delta region, and until recently was a net exporter. However, as a result of concerns about

water usage, the government set and enforced area restrictions. Rice production in 2018/19 is

down by more than a third from the prior year, the lowest since 1998/99. Tight supplies have

curtailed domestic consumption.

These policies to restrict domestic rice production have a global impact. The medium-grain

market is very thinly traded, and Egypt has largely abdicated its role as an exporter over the

past few years. Moreover, Australia’s production is forecast to decline for a second consecutive

year. Egypt became a net importer in 2017/18 with the government indicating further

willingness to import rice, even in its paddy form. Following the last severe reduction in area in

2010/11, the 2011/12 imports were around 300,000 tons and largely supplied by India as milled

rice. Ongoing efforts to address phytosanitary issues may provide an opportunity for U.S. rice

to be supplied to the market. This potential to export to a former competitor is a significant

reversal in the medium grain market. For further details, please see the September 2018 Egypt

Grain and Feed Update and the October 2018 World Agricultural Production reports.

CORN PRICES

Global: Corn prices have changed slightly since the previous WASDE. Both Argentine and Brazilian bids were down $1/ton and $3/ton to $163 and $172, respectively, on slow foreign demand. Black Sea bids were down $10/ton to $169 reflecting ample supplies and slow exports by Ukraine. U.S. bids were bounced back to $165, the same as a month ago, reflecting concerns over harvest delays in the Midwest and continued strong sales and shipments.

MARKET FEATURE

U.S. DDGS, At A Glance

1 2

Corn use for fuel ethanol in the United States (Sep-Aug) has steadily inched up, resulting in greater volumes of Distiller's Dried Grains with Solubles (DDGS). Distillers grains are the primary co-products from corn dry milling ethanol plants. DDGS are created after the starch portion of corn is fermented; alcohol is removed through a distillation process; and then dried, giving its name. This creates unique characteristics in which DDGS can be used as both a protein and energy ingredient in animal feed rations. While much of production is used in the U.S. domestic market, roughly a quarter of production is consumed overseas, supported by growing feed demand in the global market. In recent years, DDGS use has increased exponentially in Mexico and Turkey, as well as the European Union, Vietnam, and South Korea. The right chart above shows the top DDGS importers and their total feed use growth. While total feed growth fluctuates by country, the share of DDGS in their feed mix remains robust. More importantly, the U.S. share of each DDGS import market, indicated by the red pie, accentuates the dominant position that the United States enjoys. This is due to the size of the dry milling ethanol industry, which results in an over 90 percent global market share. Despite heightened competition from other feed ingredients, 2017/18 U.S. DDGS exports were still up slightly compared to 2016/17. For 2018/19, with another record crop projected, corn use for fuel ethanol production is forecast slightly up, at 2 percent. This will increase DDGS supplies, and potentially support DDGS exports as well.

OTHER NOTES Local Marketing Years (LMY): LMY refers to the 12-month period at the onset of the main harvest, when the crop is marketed (i.e., consumed, traded, or stored). The year first listed begins a country's LMY for that commodity (2016/17 starts in 2016); except for summer grains in certain Southern Hemisphere countries and for rice in selected countries, where the second year begins the LMY (2016/17 starts in 2017). Key exporter LMY’s are:

Wheat Corn Barley Sorghum

For a complete list of local marketing years, please see the FAS website http://www.fas.usda.gov/psdonline/psdAvailability.aspx Stocks: Unless otherwise stated, stock data are based on an aggregate of differing local marketing years and should not be construed as representing world stock levels at a fixed point in time. Consumption: World totals for consumption reflect total utilization, including food, seed, industrial, feed, and waste; as well as differences in local marketing year imports and local marketing year exports. Consumption statistics for regions and individual countries, however, reflect food, seed, industrial, feed, and waste only. Trade: All PSD tables are balanced on the different local marketing years. All trade tables contain Trade Year (TY) data which puts all countries on a uniform, 12-month period for analytical comparisons: wheat is July/June; coarse grains, corn, barley, sorghum, oats, and rye are Oct/Sept; and rice is calendar year. EU Consolidation: The trade figures starting from 1999/00 represent the European Union (Croatia plus the former EU-27) and exclude all intra-trade. For the years 1960/61 through 1998/99, figures are the EU-15 and also exclude all intra-trade. EU-15 member states' data for grains are no longer maintained in the official USDA database. Data for the individual NMS-10, plus Bulgaria, Romania, and Croatia, exists only prior to 1999/00. Statistics: (1) Wheat trade statistics include wheat, flour, and selected pasta products on a grain equivalent basis. (2) Rice trade statistics include rough, brown, milled, and broken on a milled equivalent basis. (3) Coarse grains statistics include corn, barley, sorghum, oats, rye, millet, and mixed grains but exclude trade in barley malt, millet, and mixed grains. Unaccounted: This term includes grain in transit, reporting discrepancies in some countries, and trade to countries outside the USDA database.
