WASDE Wheat

USDA’s projection for U.S wheat in the current 2023/24 season is total U.S. wheat production of 1,665 million bushels.  This is a production level that is similar to the prior 2022/23 season's production of 1,650 and similar to the 2021/22 level of 1,646 million bushels. U.S. ending stocks of total wheat in the 2023/24 season are forcast to be 562 million busels, similar to the 2022/23 ending stocks total of 598 million bushels. The average farm price per bushel is projected to decline from $8.85 in 2022/23 to $7.70 per bushel in 2023/34. The decline in the seasonal average price of U.S. wheat from 2022/23 to 2023/24 is partly because of the modest increase in global ending stocks from 267 to 271 million metric tons.  ...

Communicating importance of value-added products

Facing increasing pressure to quantify the value of export promotion efforts to investors, a U.S. industry organization retained WPI to develop a quantitative model that better communicated the importance of exports. The resulting model concluded that value-added meat exports contributed $0.45 cents per bushel to the price of corn, increasing support for that sector’s financial support of WPI’s client. In addition to serving the red meat industry with this type of analysis, WPI has generated similar deliverables for the U.S. soybean and poultry/egg industries.
