Global Corn Stocks Surge, Prices Plummet
Global corn stocks in 2013/14 are projected to rise to the highest level in over a decade as record and near-record crops are forecast for the United States and other exporter countries. This would be the largest year-over-year surge in global stocks since the rebuilding following the 1995/96 global shortfall. The forecast rebound is entirely attributed to the United States, where prospects for a record crop would more than double stocks. As a consequence of projected record global supplies, new-crop corn prices are currently significantly lower than last year at this time, when drought in the United States drove prices to new highs. The price drop is expected to stimulate record global consumption and import demand. However, falling prices are likely to impact planting decisions in the Southern Hemisphere in the coming months as producers reassess their relative profit margins for alternative crops.

WHEAT: WORLD MARKETS AND TRADE OVERVIEW Global production for 2013/14 is projected at a record. Trade is boosted by strong import demand in the Middle East and China. U.S. exports are up slightly this month, supported by increased opportunities in South America and China. The season-average U.S. farm price is lowered because of huge global supplies of both corn and wheat. For 2012/13, global trade and U.S. exports were raised slightly.
PRICES: Domestic: Over the past month, both Hard Red Winter (HRW) and Soft Red Winter (SRW) prices jumped, driven primarily by strong export sales. HRW rose $18 to $318/ton and SRW went up $11 to $276/ton. Hard Red Spring (HRS) dropped $9 to $320/ton and Soft White Wheat (SWW) shed $9 to $279/ton.

RICE: WORLD MARKETS AND TRADE
OVERVIEW Global production for 2013/14 is down marginally from last month, but is still a record and remains higher than consumption. Stocks are ample, particularly in major exporting countries. Trade is up on account of stronger import demand from China and Africa. Exports are up for India, Pakistan, and Vietnam. U.S. production is up slightly, resulting in a lower season-average farm price. FEATURE
China’s Transition from Exporter to Importer
China has historically been the world’s largest producer and consumer of rice. However, its role in global trade has varied significantly recently, transitioning from major exporter to minor player to major importer. In 1998, China was the fourth-largest exporter, supplying 14 percent of global trade. Surplus production was shipped to Asian and African countries in attempts to cut stocks, strengthen domestic prices, and earn foreign exchange. Now, despite near-record production and ample domestic supplies, China is the world’s largest importer, accounting for over 7 percent of global trade. Prices from neighboring countries are lower than government-supported domestic prices, thus creating an incentive to import. China has a Tariff Rate Quota (TRQ) for 5.0 million tons.

PRICES Over the past month, Thai export quotes have continued to decline, as more of its massive stocks became available. U.S. quotes have also fallen, with the harvest beginning in some parts of the country. Quotes have remained relatively stable for Uruguay, Pakistan, and India. Meanwhile, Vietnamese quotes have escalated on account of government procurement efforts and the implementation of higher minimum export prices. There is a wider range and more delineation between the various quotes than last year. Thai quotes have plunged in the direction of the other major Asian suppliers. TRADE CHANGES

COARSE GRAINS: WORLD MARKETS AND TRADE
OVERVIEW World corn production in 2013/14 is down as larger crops in Ukraine and India are more than offset by lower production in the United States, Mexico, EU, and Russia. Global trade is boosted to a record while the U.S. estimate is lowered because of reduced exportable supplies and competitor pressures. The U.S. season-average farm price is boosted slightly. For 2012/13, U.S. exports are unchanged; the season-average farm price is also unchanged. PRICES Since the release of the June WASDE report, U.S. corn quotes have been in a freefall, dropping more than $80/ton through the first week of August to $236/ton, as favorable summer weather supports the development of a record crop. The premium against Argentine and Black Sea quotes has consequently shrunk by more than two-thirds and half, respectively. At the same time, Brazil’s huge second-crop harvest is underway, causing prices to drop, thereby improving its competitiveness against Argentina. Ukraine is also poised for a record harvest and prices are plummeting.

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 (2011/12 starts in 2011); except for summer grains in certain Southern Hemisphere countries and for rice in selected countries, where the second year begins the LMY (2011/12 starts in 2012). 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)
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.
