Over the past decade, Mexico has expanded its role as a top grain importer, nearly doubling its

combined imports of corn, wheat, and rice over this period. Mexico’s imports are now forecast to

slightly exceed those of Japan, which for many years had been the top grain importer. Greater corn

demand to satisfy Mexico’s growing feed sector drives this growth. Wheat imports have been

stimulated by increased use of high-quality bread wheat, in comparison to durum which the country

produces (and exports). Rice imports have also grown as production has not kept pace with rising

consumption.

Cumulatively, the United States is the top global supplier of these three major grains and has been the

dominant supplier for the Mexican market. In addition to the opportunities provided through NAFTA,

the freight and logistical advantages have kept this trade relationship strong. Even as competition from

South American and Black Sea exporters has reduced U.S. market share in other top grain importers,

Mexico has proved a generally stable market.

Despite some recent competition in the Mexican market, the prospects continue to remain strong for the

United States to be the primary supplier. From October to June, U.S. exports of corn and distiller’s

dried grains with solubles (DDGS) exceeded the previous year. In the case of wheat, the U.S. share of

imports rebounded from just over half in 2015/16 to nearly three-quarters in 2016/17. With rice, a

strong preference for price-competitive U.S. paddy continues despite the creation of a tariff-rate quota

for all types of rice.

WHEAT: WORLD MARKETS AND TRADE

OVERVIEW

For 2017/18, global production is up this month as larger crops are expected in the Black Sea

countries—Russia, Ukraine, and Kazakhstan. Global trade is forecast up slightly this month

mainly on larger imports for Indonesia and Nigeria. Exports are raised for the Black Sea

countries which more than offset reductions for Canada and the EU. U.S. imports are projected

higher based on tightening supplies of high-protein wheat. The season-average farm price is

unchanged at $4.80 per bushel.

For 2016/17, global trade is up, based on higher imports for China, Nigeria, and Vietnam and

despite reductions for Bangladesh and South Africa. Exports for the United States and Canada

are revised up this month. U.S. imports are raised marginally this month.

PRICES

Domestic: Wheat prices for July were mainly lower. Hard Red Winter (HRW) plummeted

$29/ton to $217, while Soft Red Winter (SRW) declined $17/ton to $195. Hard Red Spring

(HRS) fell $21/ton to $322. Wheat prices remain elevated due to dry conditions in the Northern

Plains, but have settled lower from the peaks seen in early July on the anticipated harvest. On

the other hand, Soft White Winter (SWW) rose $8/ton to $212 with strong export sales.

FEATURE

Canadian and U.S. Wheat Exports Down on Tightening Supplies

Year-over-year, combined Canadian and U.S. wheat exports are projected lower based on

smaller crops in both countries. However, massive carryin stocks partially offset the lower

production. Drought conditions have affected spring wheat production, leading to tight supplies

of high-protein wheat. U.S. exports are forecast down year-over-year, while Canada’s exports

are forecast nearly unchanged amid robust global demand for high-protein wheat. However, a

larger amount of Canadian supplies are likely to go to the United States, leaving less for other

importers.

The limited availability of Canadian and U.S. wheat is expected to have a major impact on the

global market. The EU and Russia are both forecast to have larger crops and are expected to

pick up exports at the expense of the United States and Canada. However, the vast majority of

the EU and Russian crops will not be of adequate protein to compensate for the reduced

availability of U.S. and Canadian spring wheat. Protein premiums have soared in recent months

based on tightening supplies of high-protein spring wheat.

TRADE CHANGES IN 2017/18

Selected Importers

Bangladesh is lowered 300,000 tons to 6.5 million based on slower expected

consumption growth in light of lower 2016/17 consumption.

Brazil is up 200,000 tons to 7.2 million on a smaller crop.

RICE: WORLD MARKETS AND TRADE OVERVIEW For 2017/18, global production is revised lower this month on smaller crops in Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and the United States. Consumption is down fractionally, while stocks continue to grow with additional carryin supplies in Thailand. Global trade is revised higher this month to just below the 2014 record. The U.S. season-average farm price is raised. For 2016/17, global production is raised even further to a new record. Trade is revised up on increased demand from Bangladesh, the Philippines, and Sri Lanka.

PRICES

Over the past month, Asian quotes have generally declined, while those in the Western Hemisphere have risen. Thai and Indian quotes have converged around $410/ton, pressured lower by new crop supplies. Likewise, Pakistani and Vietnamese quotes have both settled just under $400/ton in the midst of their respective harvests. The Uruguay quotes crept up to $505/ton, while U.S. quotes rose to $530/ton, pressured higher in part by fresh demand from the Middle East.

Sri Lanka's Market Share of Global Rice Imports

FEATURE

Sri Lanka’s reduction in domestic rice supplies is spurring its return to the global market. Sri Lanka’s recent rice crops have been affected both by untimely flooding and its worst drought in 37 years. Subsequent seed shortages and diminished reservoir levels are hampering recovery efforts. See August 2017 World Agricultural Production for further details.

Although Sri Lanka started the year with ample carryin stocks still available from the record 2015/16 crop, the government has depleted most of these stocks by releasing them to stabilize prices. Despite the government’s urging traders to sell their rice stocks, the sale of private stocks has been limited as traders continue to wait for higher prices. With these constraints on domestic supplies, prices have continued to rise.

As a result, Sri Lanka is set to import a record 700,000 tons in 2017. Several countries, including Indonesia, India, and Pakistan have supplied limited amounts of food aid. However, the bulk of the imports are being negotiated through agreements with neighboring countries including India, Thailand, Vietnam, and Burma. In addition, the Sri Lankan government has substantially lowered the import tariff to encourage additional imports.

Over the past 60 years, Sri Lanka has become far less dependent on imports due to a steady increase in production. In the 1960s, Sri Lanka accounted for almost 10 percent of global rice imports while it has been virtually absent from the global rice market since 2000. The anticipated imports in 2017 would cause its share in global trade to surge once again.

COARSE GRAINS: WORLD MARKETS AND TRADE

OVERVIEW

For 2017/18, global corn production is down slightly as smaller crops in Canada and the EU

more than offset higher prospects in Russia. Global trade is raised on higher projected imports

for the EU and Iran. Exports are boosted for Brazil and Ukraine. Barley trade is little changed as

a smaller barley crop in the EU reduces exportable supplies, while a larger crop in Ukraine

boosts barley export prospects. The U.S. season-average farm price is unchanged at $3.30 per

bushel.

For 2016/17, global corn production is up from last month driven by a larger crop in Brazil.

Global trade is slightly higher as greater exports for Ukraine more than offset lower shipments

from Brazil. The U.S. season-average farm price is unchanged at $3.35 per bushel.

PRICES

Global corn prices have trended down from last month’s WASDE on improved prospects for

abundant global supplies, as well as weather eroding premiums during July. Although Argentine

bids were mostly unchanged from last month at $153/ton, prices ended lower for other major

suppliers. Ongoing harvests pressured Brazilian prices lower by $3/ton, settling at $159. Black

Sea quotes dropped $6/ton to $170. U.S. quotes also fell slightly to $163/ton, owing to weather

prospects.

FEATURE

Colombia: A Promising Market for U.S. Corn

After Mexico, Colombia is the second-largest market for U.S. corn in the Western Hemisphere.

Because Colombia does not produce enough yellow corn domestically, it is heavily reliant on

imports to meet growing demand from its pork and poultry industries. U.S. corn has dominated

this nearly 4.5 million ton import market with almost complete market share in CY 2016. In

addition, the 2012 U.S.-Colombia Trade Promotion Agreement (TPA) provides for more

competitive U.S. corn prices relative to other suppliers (i.e. Argentina and Brazil), as the TPA

eliminated U.S. corn from being subject to variable duties under Colombia’s Andean Community

Price Band System. These duties are quite punitive when global corn prices are low.

As a result, imports have surpassed the U.S. corn quota every year since 2014, suggesting robust

demand and promising growth. As Colombia’s U.S. corn quota expands and duties outside the

quota continue to decline under the TPA, greater growth is expected in the future.

TRADE CHANGES IN 2017/18

Selected Exporters

Brazilian corn is up 1.5 million tons to 35.0 million on a larger projected 2017 second-

crop harvest and expectations that some shipments will shift forward from the previous

year. 2016/17 exports are cut 1.0 million tons to 21.0 million.

Ukrainian corn is boosted 1.0 million tons to 21.5 million reflecting expectations of

robust EU and Iranian demand. 2016/17 exports are up 1.0 million tons to 21.5 million on

recent trade data.

Note: Ukrainian corn stocks have been revised (MY 2008/09-2015/16) to better reflect

the State Statistical Committee’s published data.

Russian corn is up 500,000 tons to 6.5 million on a larger crop and strong demand from

Iran. 2016/17 exports are up 200,000 tons to 5.5 million due to recent trade data from the

Federal Customs Service.

Serbian corn is down 300,000 tons to 2.2 million reflecting a smaller crop and expected

intense competition from Ukraine.

South African corn is up 200,000 tons to 1.9 million on a larger new-crop 2017 harvest

and strong expected demand from African countries.

Canadian corn is down 200,000 tons to 1.3 million on a smaller crop and expected strong

competition from other global exporters. 2016/17 exports are up the same amount to 1.3

million on recent trade data.

EU corn exports are slashed 800,000 tons to 1.5 million reflecting a smaller crop and

expected competition from Ukraine, Russia, and South America.

Ukrainian barley is boosted 800,000 tons to 4.4 million on larger production and

expectations of competitive prices relative to other major suppliers.

EU barley is down 500,000 tons to 6.5 million on lower production and projected

substantial competition from Ukraine and Russia.

Australian barley is cut 200,000 tons to 5.8 million on smaller exportable supplies.

Tighter supplies were a result of higher 2016/17 exports, which are up 300,000 tons to 9.3

million on strong Chinese demand.

Russian barley is up 200,000 tons to 3.8 million on larger production.

U.S. sorghum is up 250,000 tons to 5.5 million on larger production and expectations of

robust Chinese demand.

Selected Importers

EU corn is boosted 1.0 million tons to a world-leading 16.0 million reflecting a smaller

crop and expectations of robust demand for corn from Ukraine and South America.

2016/17 imports are also up 300,000 tons to 13.4 million on recent trade data and

affordable global supplies.

Iranian corn is boosted 1.0 million tons to 10.0 million on expectations for continued

growth in the domestic feed industry and large global supplies. 2016/17 imports are

boosted 500,000 tons to 9.0 million on strong shipments from Ukraine and Brazil.

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

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.
