Strong Corn Exports for Russia and Ukraine

For email subscription, click here to register: https://public.govdelivery.com/accounts/USDAFAS/subscriber/new

Record global corn consumption, large exportable

supplies, and favorable exchange rates have

supported growth for Russia and Ukraine's corn

exports. For example, since 2014, both the hryvina

(Ukraine’s currency) and ruble (Russia’s currency)

have depreciated more than 40 percent against the

U.S. dollar.1 Moreover, Russia and Ukraine

prohibit plantings of genetically modified corn,

therefore providing a competitive edge in certain

markets.

For Russia, exports for 2016/17 (Oct-Sep) are

projected to break the previous record. Compared

with 2011/12, exports have more than doubled.

Russia’s proximity to both the Middle East and

Asia has helped fuel recent growth, as many

countries in these regions have boosted imports to

meet burgeoning demand.

Ukraine’s situation is different: 2016/17 exports are

forecast up from last year and the third-largest on

record. Ukraine has not seen the degree of Russia’s

growth, even though the country still manages to

export about two-thirds of production. Large

exports have been sustained by robust demand

from Europe and Asia, as well as growth in North

African and Middle Eastern countries.

These trends are noteworthy since Ukraine and

Russia compete with the United States in several

markets, especially Egypt, South Korea, and Japan.

Both Black Sea countries have sustained export

growth that helps meet record global corn

consumption.

1Using data from the National Bank of Ukraine and Central Bank of Russia,

the December 31, 2013 values for the UAH/USD and RUB/USD were

compared to December 31, 2014. It is important to note that the hryvina and

ruble also fell over 40 and 30 percent against the Euro during the same

period.

WHEAT: WORLD MARKETS AND TRADE OVERVIEW Global wheat production, already at a record, is raised even higher this month mainly on larger crops in Argentina, the EU, and Russia. Global trade is boosted to a new record with stronger import demand from several Asian countries and Brazil. Larger exports for Australia, Argentina, and the EU are partially offset by a decrease for Canada. The U.S. season-average farm price is raised $0.10 to $3.80 per bushel. U.S. PRICES:

Domestic: Price changes for wheat classes were relatively modest during December. Hard Red Winter (HRW) was up $8/ton to $191 and Hard Red Spring (HRS) gained $2/ton to $255 based on a slight pickup in foreign demand, highlighted by India’s announced elimination of its import duty. Soft Red Winter (SRW) and Soft White Winter (SWW) were both down $1/ton to $174 and $187 respectively, continuing to be weighed by large global supplies.

INDIA SHIFTS TO NET IMPORTER AS SUPPLIES TIGHTEN

India’s wheat supplies in 2016/17 have tightened relative to growing domestic demand, leading the country to shift from a net exporter to a net importer. Reacting to tight supplies, the government eliminated its import duty in December 2016. Imports are estimated at 3.7 million tons in 2016/17, which would be the highest in 10 years. This is particularly noteworthy given that just 3 years ago India was exporting over 6 million tons, making it the eighth largest exporter at the time. This is not the first time that India has switched from an exporter to an importer. India followed a similar pattern in 2005/06 when production was down and stocks were exceptionally tight. Akin to the current situation, the government eliminated its import duty and imports surged in 2006/07 to the highest level in over 30 years (6.7 million tons). Furthermore, exports were banned during that period. With a build-up in supplies toward the end of that marketing year, the duty was reinstated and imports fell substantially the next year. Production and stocks grew for several years until the export ban was lifted in 2011 and India re-emerged as a net exporter. India’s recent exports have mainly been to Bangladesh, Indonesia, and the United Arab Emirates. Currently a net importer, India joins these markets in sourcing wheat from Australia, Russia, and Ukraine. With abundant global supplies, it will not be difficult to find the needed wheat in exporting countries.

TRADE CHANGES IN 2016/17

Selected Exporters

• Argentina is up 800,000 tons to 9.0 million on a faster pace of shipments as well as a larger crop.

• Australia is boosted 500,000 tons to 23.5 million due to ample supplies, competitive prices, and larger expected demand from Asian countries.

• Canada is lowered 500,000 tons to 21.0 million due to slower-than-expected exports.

• The EU is raised 500,000 tons to 25.5 million based on a faster-than-expected pace of

trade.

• Ukraine is lifted 200,000 tons to 15.7 million based on stronger demand from Asian countries.

Selected Importers

• Bangladesh is raised 200,000 tons to 5.3 million on a stronger pace of trade and higher expected food use.

• Brazil is up 300,000 tons to 7.3 million on rebounding food use, evidenced by the fast

pace of trade.

• India is boosted 700,000 tons to 3.7 million as the removal of the import duty is expected to spur additional demand.

• Vietnam is up 300,000 tons to 3.6 million based on stronger trade and expectations of

larger feed and residual use.

RICE: WORLD MARKETS AND TRADE OVERVIEW For 2016/17, global rice production is lowered this month on downward revisions to the crops in the United States, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, and Brazil. However, production remains at a record. Global trade is up, with higher imports for Sri Lanka and the EU. Exports are raised for Thailand. Global stocks are revised lower with reductions to Vietnam and Sri Lanka, though still up from the previous year. FEATURE After a brief absence from the market in 2016, Sri Lanka is forecast to return as an importer in 2017, based on expectations of a 30 percent smaller crop amid a drought (see World Agricultural Production January 2017). As prices have risen, the Sri Lankan government has taken measures to facilitate imports of rice by removing levies and import taxes, authorizing private sector imports, and initiating government purchases from overseas. Historically, India has been the primary supplier. However, the 1-million-ton shortfall is not expected to be met exclusively by imports, nor are imports forecast to rise to the 2014 level. In contrast to that period, Sri Lanka has begun this year with more ample carry-in stocks still available from the record 2015/16 crop. The government has already announced plans to release the majority of its reserves and has called upon the private sector to draw down its stocks as well.

PRICES

Exporter quotes for long-grain rice remained fairly stable over the past month. Thai and Indian quotes are $379/MT and $355/MT, respectively. The Vietnamese quote declined slightly to $339/MT, reflecting weak demand from traditional Asian buyers. The Western Hemisphere quotes remained at $465/MT for Uruguay and $455/MT for the United States on thin offshore demand. SELECTED TRADE CHANGES for 2017

• Indonesia imports are lowered 250,000 tons to 1.0 million on sufficient supplies and declining per capita demand.

• Sri Lanka imports are raised sharply by 130,000 tons to 150,000 on a much smaller crop.

• Thailand exports are raised 200,000 tons to 9.7 million on continued competitiveness amid ample supplies.

SELECTED TRADE CHANGES for 2016 – based on trade data

• Pakistan exports are raised 100,000 tons to 4.3 million.

• Philippines imports are lowered 200,000 tons to 800,000.

• Thailand exports are raised 300,000 tons to 9.5 million.

• Vietnam exports lowered 300,000 tons to 5.1 million.

COARSE GRAINS: WORLD MARKETS AND TRADE

OVERVIEW

Global corn production for 2016/17 is lower from last month with reductions for the United

States and Bolivia more than offsetting an increase for Serbia. Global trade is projected slightly

higher led by larger imports for Bolivia, Brazil, and the United States more than offsetting a

reduction for Indonesia. Exports are raised for the EU and Serbia. The U.S. season-average

farm price is up 5 cents to $3.40 per bushel.

PRICES

Since the release of the December WASDE, South American quotes remain elevated on tight

nearby supplies relative to other origins. Both Argentine and Brazilian quotes are at $183 and

$185 per ton, the same as a month ago. The Black Sea quote has been largely range-bound,

ending up $2 per ton to $169 on steady demand for exports. The U.S. quote is up $6 per ton to

$165 on strong sales and shipments. Since February 2016, U.S. corn has remained the lowest on

a FOB basis, reflecting abundant supplies in the United States relative to other exporters.

TRADE CHANGES IN 2016/17

Selected Exporters

EU corn is raised 200,000 tons to 2.0 million in light of the brisk pace for “customs

surveillance” data.

Serbian corn is boosted 300,000 tons to 2.5 million on account of higher production and

competitive prices.

Selected Importers

Brazilian corn is raised 700,000 tons to 1.8 million reflecting stronger imports to date.

Marketing year (MY) 2015/16 (Mar 2016-Feb 2017) imports are boosted 700,000 tons to

3.0 million on the stronger pace to date. Consequently, trade year 2016/17 (Oct 2016-Sep

2017) imports are raised the same amount to 1.8 million. MY 2015/16 exports are cut 1.5

million tons to 15.0 million on the slower pace to date. With larger imports and smaller

exports, domestic consumption is projected higher. Estimated ending stocks are increased

modestly, although remain relatively tight. Domestic consumption for 2016/17 is

projected higher on growing demand for feed, particularly from the pork and poultry

sectors.

Bolivian corn is up 300,000 tons to 450,000 partly offsetting the decimated crop.

Indonesian corn is cut 700,000 tons to 1.0 million on the slower pace of trade. Import-

restrictive policies are also expected to discourage imports.

U.S. corn is boosted 150,000 tons to 1.4 million on trade to date.

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 (2015/16 starts in 2015); except for summer grains

in certain Southern Hemisphere countries and for rice in selected countries, where the second

year begins the LMY (2015/16 starts in 2016). Key exporter LMY’s are:

Wheat Corn Barley Sorghum

Argentina (Dec/Nov) Argentina (Mar/Feb) Australia (Nov/Oct) Argentina (Mar/Feb)

Australia (Oct/Sep) Brazil (Mar/Feb) Canada (Aug/Jul) Australia (Mar/Feb)

Canada (Aug/Jul) China (Oct/Sep) European Union (Jul/Jun) United States (Sep/Aug)

China (Jul/Jun) South Africa (May/Apr) Russia (Jul/Jun)

European Union (Jul/Jun) United States (Sep/Aug) Ukraine (Jul/Jun)

India (Apr/Mar) United States (Jun/May)

Kazakhstan (Jul/Jun)

Russia(Jul/Jun)

Turkey (Jun/May)

Ukraine (Jul/Jun)

United States (Jun/May)

**Updated** For a complete list of local marketing years, please see the FAS website

(https://apps.fas.usda.gov/psdonline/app/index.html#/app/downloads).

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.
