U.S. Corn Exports at a New High for 2020/21
The global corn market is supplied primarily by four countries – Argentina, Brazil, Ukraine, and the United States. Combined, these countries account for nearly 90 percent of global exports. This month, U.S. exports are forecast higher to reflect continued strong foreign demand and limited supplies in Ukraine and Brazil.
U.S. corn exports are forecast up 3.0 million tons to 73.0 million for 2020/21 (Oct-Sep). If realized, the volume would be the largest in history. The previous record was 63.7 million tons in 2017/18. For the first half of the current trade year, the export pace was well ahead of previous levels with large volumes to China and many other destinations. The pace of U.S. corn inspections for exports is still brisk according to export inspections data for May, totaling nearly 8.2 million tons, of which roughly 40 percent is destined to China.
For Ukraine, its exports to China have more than doubled from a year ago despite smaller available supplies. This has left countries in North Africa, Middle East, and Asia to look to the United States for corn. For Brazil, exports are lowered this month reflecting persistent dry conditions in several states where the second-crop corn is produced. The second-crop corn, particularly in the Center-West, is primarily destined for overseas markets, while the first-crop corn is used in the domestic market.
U.S. corn exports are expected to be robust for the remainder of the year with large sales on the books. Unfavorable crop prospects in Brazil could be supportive of U.S. exports into early 2021/22 (Oct-Sep). However, with the current forecast of larger exports for Argentina, Brazil, and Ukraine, U.S. exports are projected to decline for 2021/22. Still, this would be the third-largest exports on record.

WHEAT
WHEAT PRICES Domestic: U.S. wheat classes have moved in divergent directions since the May WASDE reflecting differing weather conditions. Hard Red Winter (HRW) fell $32/ton to $291 while Soft Red Winter (SRW) plummeted $42/ton to $288/ton as winter wheat conditions improved, though recent rains during HRW harvest have lifted prices higher in the past week on harvest delays. Meanwhile, Soft White Winter (SWW) rose by $9/ton to $323 reflecting strong continued exports to Asian markets and concerns about dry weather in the Northwest. Hard Red Spring (HRS) declined $10/ton to $331 with considerable volatility during the month, reflecting concerns over weather in the Northern Plains.

OVERVIEW FOR 2021/22 Global production is raised to a record with larger crops in the European Union, Russia, Ukraine, and the United States. Global consumption is revised higher with more feed and residual use, while global stocks are revised higher, mostly reflecting additional supplies in the European Union and Russia. Imports are raised for Turkey, Brazil, and Bangladesh, more than offsetting a reduction for the European Union. Exports are raised for Ukraine and India. The U.S. season-average farm price remains at $6.50 per bushel. OVERVIEW FOR 2020/21 Global production is adjusted slightly lower mainly on a smaller crop in Pakistan, while consumption is up slightly. Global stocks are reduced marginally. Imports are lowered mainly on Morocco while exports are adjusted lower for Russia. The U.S. season-average farm price remains at $5.05 per bushel.
Foreign Agricultural Service/USDA 3 June 2021Global Market Analysis
Global: Wheat prices fell across most major exporting countries since last month’s WASDE with improving winter wheat conditions in several key producing regions. Russian export quotes have declined as the winter wheat harvest nears and remained flat since the new floating taxes became effective June 2. Its quotes are currently the most competitive. Argentine quotes have also declined slightly as planting is underway. U.S. quotes declined after the last WASDE but have rebounded partially over the past week with some rains at harvest time. Australian quotes slid only slightly as offshore demand remains robust. EU quotes are marginally lower as old crop supplies tighten but prospects are favorable for the new crop. In contrast, quotes from Canada have risen sharply over the past couple of weeks with a smaller expected crop.

MARKET FEATURE Russian Wheat Export Policies Shift Timing of Shipments
Russia is the world’s largest wheat exporter but amid concerns about domestic inflation, the government has been enacting policies affecting trade. In February, a new export quota of 17.5 million tons for wheat, barley, corn, and rye was implemented for the period February 15-June 30. In addition, an export tax of 50 Euros/ton was put into place March 1. A key impact of these policies was to shift the timing of shipments in recent months. Key importers such as Turkey and Egypt accelerated their purchases before the implementation of the new quota and tariff. As a result, Russia’s exports soared to over 4 million tons in February but fell to slightly above 1 million tons in March. Exports in April and May were reportedly also muted but are forecast to be unseasonably high in June because of a change in trade policy. The fixed export tax of 50 Euros/ton has been replaced by a floating export tax based on benchmark factors. The floating export tax fell to $28/ton the first week of June, lifting slightly to $29/ton the second week. Ample supplies have been stockpiled and prospects for the new crop are generally favorable. This, as well as the lower duty relative to the prior month, are expected to boost Russia exports sharply in June, the final month of the marketing year when shipments typically decline. The uncertainty around forward contracting in light of the floating tax have increased some of the challenges that exporters and buyers face. Nevertheless, Russia is forecast to further expand its exports in 2021/22 and remain the top exporter. Not only will it have abundant supplies while entering the new year, but the new crop is also expected to be at a record 86.0 million tons.

Foreign Agricultural Service/USDA 7 June 2021Global Market Analysis
MARKET FEATURES Philippines Lowers Import Tariff with Potential to Diversify Suppliers
The Philippines is expected to be the second-largest importer in 2021, and recently announced a change to its import tariffs that has the potential to shift its suppliers. In February 2019, the Philippine government removed quantitative restrictions and replaced them with tariffs, offering a lower tariff rate for countries from the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN)1. As a result, ASEAN countries such as Vietnam expanded their shares, but India and other non-ASEAN countries lost market share. In May 2021, the President of the Philippines issued a new policy lowering the Most Favored Nation (MFN) tariff, so that the original 40 percent in-quota tariff and 50 percent out-of-quota tariff have both been reduced to 35 percent. The result is that all exporting countries face the same tariff as ASEAN countries. Traditionally, ASEAN members Vietnam and Thailand have been the most prominent exporters given the proximity, established trade relationships, and ability of these countries to provide government-to-government agreements during the period of quantitative restrictions. However, since 2019, Vietnam has become the primary rice supplier to the Philippines due to its lower prices. The new policy on MFN tariffs is likely to have less impact on Western Hemisphere suppliers than other non-ASEAN exporters in Asia. Exports from the Western Hemisphere are expected to remain limited, as combined price, tariff, and transportation costs are higher than Philippines domestic prices. Non-ASEAN countries, including India and Pakistan, have more competitive prices and the reduced tariffs would result in lower landed prices. However, these non-ASEAN Asian countries would need to increase consumer awareness and build business relationships in order to make significant gains in market share in the Philippines. While India has the greatest potential to expand market share as the top global exporter with competitive prices, Vietnam is expected to continue being the major supplier to the Philippines.

India Rice Export Growth Continues with New Monthly Record in March
The 2021 rice export forecast for India has been raised to a new record of 17.0 million tons, nearly triple the next largest exporter, Vietnam. India also hit a new monthly export record in March of nearly 2.5 million tons, resulting in over 6 million tons shipped in the first quarter of 2021. India export growth has been a result of stronger demand from its neighbors and from countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, as well as the emergence of new buyers such as China and Vietnam. Bangladesh is currently the top export destination for India, importing nearly 900,000 tons in the first quarter of 2021. The Government of Bangladesh lowered its import tariff on rice to curb high domestic prices. Imports are now forecast to reach 1.5 million tons in 2021, up from only 20,000 tons in 2020. Imports by neighboring Nepal are also set to rise on growing demand. India exports have expanded to Senegal and several other African countries on competitive prices. In addition, China recently granted India access for non-basmati rice. China began importing rice from India for the first time in decades, reaching nearly 300,000 tons in the first quarter. In the same period, India even exported nearly 250,000 tons to Vietnam, the world’s second largest rice supplier. India rice exports have been supported by large supplies and successive bumper crops, the world’s most competitive pricing, and improved export infrastructure capable of shipping rice in bulk. Meanwhile, major suppliers like Vietnam and Thailand have had reduced supplies and strong domestic demand. These countries have also faced worldwide container shortages, creating delays and driving up costs. India has increased export capacity by using deep water ports where exporters can take advantage of shipping in bulk. For 2022, India is forecast to have abundant supplies while its exports are expected to decline moderately to 15.5 million tons, mostly on lower demand from Bangladesh.

MARKET FEATURES China Demand Shapes Global Barley Trade China import demand for coarse grains is not limited to corn and sorghum. This month, barley imports are forecast higher, reflecting trade to date. For the first 7 months in 2020/21 (Oct-Sep), imports totaled 7.0 million tons, well above previous years’ levels. Imported barley, mainly from Canada, the European Union, and Ukraine, has been used in the domestic beer industry and as a substitute for corn in feed rations, particularly in the southern region. Barley imports are not subject to a tariff-rate quota and are therefore administratively less burdensome. With greater demand from China, global imports are forecast higher for both 2020/21 and 2021/22 from last month. While the antidumping and countervailing duties on barley from Australia remain in place, China has been successful in securing alternative sources for barley. Meanwhile, barley from Australia has found new markets around the world, primarily in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Mexico. In the Red Sea, ships carrying barley from the European Union and Ukraine to China are crossing paths with ships loaded with Australian barley destined for the Middle East. These trade dynamics are likely to be in place for a few more years due to China’s 5-year action on barley from Australia.
