USDA : Wasde, 6.12.02

USDA U.S. Department of Agriculture - June 12, 2002

WASDE-387 June 12, 2002


Note:  With planting of 2002/03 crops still underway
in the Northern Hemisphere and several months away in
the Southern Hemisphere, early-season projections in
this report are highly tentative.  Methods used to
project U.S. acreage and yields are noted in the
footnotes of each table.  Today's National
Agricultural Statistics Service forecasts are used
for U.S. winter wheat.  Projected area for corn and
soybeans and projected yields for corn are adjusted
this month to reflect unfavorable weather conditions.

WHEAT:  Projected U.S. 2002/03 ending stocks of wheat
are down 64 million bushels from last month as lower
production and increased use more than offset higher
forecast carryin stocks.  Forecast winter wheat
production is reduced 63 million bushels due to lower
yields.  Food use is down 5 million bushels from last
month, but exports are increased 25 million bushels
because of reduced competition.  The projected price
range for wheat for 2002/03 is up 15 cents on each
end to $2.65 to $3.25 per bushel, compared with $2.78
estimated for 2001/02.

Forecast 2001/02 ending stocks of wheat are up 20
million bushels from last month.  The 5-million-
bushel drop in food use reflects recently released
mill grind estimates by the Census Bureau.  Forecast
exports are down 15 million bushels due to slow
late-season pace of sales and shipments.

Global 2002/03 world wheat production and ending
stocks projections are down from last month.  Lower
foreign production is led by reductions of 2 million
tons for China, 1.5 million tons for Australia, and
0.3 to 0.5 million tons each for several countries. 
Larger crops in the EU, Morocco, and Brazil are only
partially offsetting.  Although projected imports by
Morocco are down from last month, the major impact
from the production changes is a 1-million-ton
reduction in Australia's exports.  Larger U.S. and EU
exports offset the reduction for Australia.  The
United States, China, the EU, Russia, and Ukraine
account for most of the drop in projected 2002/03
global ending stocks from last month.

COARSE GRAINS:  The outlook for U.S. 2002/03 feed
grains is for smaller supplies and stocks than last
month.  The 2002/03 corn crop is projected at 9.65
billion bushels, down 285 million bushels from last
month but almost 150 million bushels above 2001/02. 
Prolonged wet conditions in the eastern Corn Belt are
expected to reduce corn plantings 1 million acres
from the March intentions.  In addition, the
projected yield is reduced 2 bushels per acre from
the simple linear trend used last month because of
delayed planting progress.  Most of the lower
production is reflected in projected 2002/03 ending
stocks.  A 25-million-bushel reduction in exports is
the only change in projected use this month.  Ending
stocks of corn are projected down 320 million bushels
from 2001/02 and would be the smallest since 1996/97. 
The projected price range for corn is up 15 cents on
each end to $1.90 to $2.30 per bushel.

Projected 2002/03 global coarse grain production and
stocks are down from last month, largely reflecting
the smaller U.S. corn crop.  Most of the reduction in
foreign production is due to smaller prospective corn
and barley crops in Eastern Europe.  Global coarse
grain imports are up slightly this month, largely due
to higher expected imports by South Korea and Japan. 
Forecast imports for South Korea and Japan also are
raised for 2001/02.  These higher corn imports are
balanced by increased exports by China, up 0.5
million tons to 6.5 million tons for 2001/02 and up 2
million tons for 2002/03 to 6 million tons.  Lower
China and U.S. corn stocks account for most of the
reduction in projected 2002/03 global coarse grain
ending stocks.

RICE:  Ending stocks for 2002/03 are projected at
43.6 million cwt, 1 million cwt below last month, but
still the highest since 1986/87.  The reduction in
ending stocks reflects lowered beginning stocks, the
result of increased exports in 2001/02.  Exports in
2001/02 are increased 1 million cwt to 91 million cwt
owing to an increase in rough rice exports.  At 28
million cwt, 2001/02 rough rice exports are more than
2 million cwt above the previous record set in
1998/99.  The 2002/03 rough rice export projection is
27 million cwt, unchanged from a month ago.  The
average milling rate for 2001/02 is raised to 70
percent, up 1 percentage point from last month and
the highest rate since 1996/97.  The projected
2002/03 milling rate remains at 69 percent.  The
season-average price range for 2002/03 is increased 5
cents per cwt on each end to $4.00 to $4.50 per cwt
compared to the estimate of $4.15 per cwt for
2001/02.

Projected global 2002/03 rice supply and use are
nearly unchanged from last month.  For 2001/02, world
production, consumption, and exports are raised while
ending stocks are lowered.  India's 2001/02 exports
are raised to 4.5 million tons, while Vietnam's
exports are lowered to 3.0 million tons.  Larger
world consumption and exports result in reduced
ending stocks, which carry through into 2002/03. 
World ending stocks in 2002/03 are projected at 111.5
million tons, 658,000 tons below a month ago, and the
lowest since 1988/89.

OILSEEDS:  U.S. oilseed production for 2002/03 is
projected at 88.2 million tons, up 0.6 million tons
from last month.  Projected U.S. soybean production
is raised 20 million bushels this month to 2.87
billion bushels because of an anticipated increase in
soybean plantings from the March intentions. 
Projected soybean plantings are up 500,000 acres from
last month because of reduced corn plantings.  U.S.
soybean export prospects for 2002/03 are reduced 10
million bushels to 965 million bushels this month due
to increased supplies in Brazil and Argentina. 
Soybean crush is unchanged as reduced soybean meal
export prospects are offset by increased domestic
use.

Global oilseed production for 2002/03 is projected at
a record 331.6 million tons, up 0.6 million tons from
last month because of increased U.S. soybean
production; foreign oilseed production is unchanged.

Projected U.S. season-average soybean prices for
2002/03 are unchanged at $4.00 to $4.90 per bushel,
compared with an estimated $4.25 per bushel for
2001/02.  Soybean product prices are also unchanged.

U.S. soybean exports for 2001/02 are raised 15
million bushels this month to a record 1.035 billion
bushels, as the export pace continues to be stronger
than anticipated.  U.S. soybean crush for 2001/02 is
raised 5 million bushels based on increased domestic
soybean meal use.  U.S. ending stocks are reduced 20
million bushels to 240 million bushels, slightly
below a year earlier.  Soybean meal imports are
raised this month reflecting expected shipments from
Brazil.

Soybean exports from South America for 2001/02 are
reduced 0.45 million tons this month reflecting the
effect of continued economic upheaval in Argentina
and a slow early-season export pace for Brazil. 
Global oilseed production for 2001/02 is reduced 0.4
million tons this month primarily because of
reductions for soybeans and peanuts in India.

SUGAR:  Projected U.S. sugar production and use for
fiscal year 2002/03 are unchanged from last month. 
The 2002/03 tariff rate quota has not been announced.

For 2001/02, a minor change in cane sugar production
results in a year-ending stocks-to-use ratio of 16.1
percent, up from 16 percent last month.

LIVESTOCK, POULTRY, AND DAIRY:  Projected meat
production for 2003 is unchanged this month. 
Forecast total U.S. meat production for 2002 is only
slightly raised from last month as hog slaughter has
been higher than expected.  The Quarterly Hogs and
Pigs report, scheduled for release June 28, will
provide indications of producers' responses to recent
market conditions.  Beef production in 2002 is raised
fractionally as second-quarter cow slaughter has been
relatively high.  Poultry production forecasts are
unchanged from last month.

Trade forecasts for red meats for both 2002 and 2003
are unchanged from last month but forecasts of
poultry exports, primarily broilers, have been
reduced in both years.  First-quarter exports to Hong
Kong were weaker than expected.  Bans by a number of
countries on imports of U.S. poultry have resulted in
sharp reductions in exports of broilers during the
second quarter of 2002.  Although most of the import
restrictions have been lifted, exports to Russia have
remained weak.  Exports are now expected to grow more
slowly than previously forecast.

Cattle and hog price forecasts for 2002 are lowered
because of large supplies of meat and stagnant
demand.  Cattle prices for the spring and summer
quarters are reduced slightly from last month but an
expected reduction in beef supplies should boost
prices in the last quarter of 2002.  Hog prices have
been pressured by large meat supplies and prices are
now expected to remain relatively weak as stocks
build.  Seasonal increases in fourth-quarter pork
production are expected to put further pressure on
prices.  Although some price recovery is expected in
2003, large total meat supplies will limit hog price
gains.  Forecast poultry prices for 2002 are lowered
slightly from last month.

Milk production for 2002/03 is raised fractionally
from last month.  Milk fat use has been weaker than
expected and commercial dairy stocks are expected to
grow.  High cheese production has resulted in large
supplies of whey, which, coupled with weak exports
and weak demand for skim solids, are expected to
result in lower prices for Class III components.  As
a result, the forecast for Class III milk prices is
reduced to $11.20 to $11.40 per cwt in 2001/02 and
$10.60 to $11.60 per cwt in 2002/03.  Class IV prices
are also lowered in both 2001/02 and 2002/03 as skim
solids demand remains weak.  CCC removals of nonfat
dry milk are raised for both years.  The all milk
price forecasts for 2001/02 and 2002/03 are lowered.

COTTON:  No changes are made in this month's U.S.
projections for 2002/03.  For 2001/02, U.S. imports
are raised marginally.

The world balance sheet for 2002/03 includes slightly
higher beginning and ending stocks.  Production,
consumption, and trade are unchanged.

For 2001/02, ending stocks are raised slightly due to
larger production and lower consumption.  Production
is increased mainly for Australia and Pakistan. 
Consumption is reduced for Indonesia, Japan, Mexico,
and Thailand, partially offset by increases for
Pakistan and Russia.

undetermined) not included in estimates of beginning stocks by type (in mil.
cwt): 2000/01-1.4; 2001/02-1.3; 2002/03-1.3. 3/ Residual includes unreported
use, processing losses and estimating errors.  Use by type may not add to total
rice use because of the difference in brokens between beginning and ending
stocks.  4/ Includes rough rice and milled rice exports.  Milled rice exports
are converted to an equivalent rough basis.  5/ Expressed as a percent, i.e.,
the total quantity of whole kernel and broken rice produced divided by the
quantity of rough rice milled.  6/ Marketing-year weighted average price
received by farmers.  7/ Includes imports.  8/ Exports by type of rice are
estimated.  * Planted acres reported in March 28, 2002 Prospective Plantings.  
Harvested acres projected using harvested-to-planted ratios by State and type
of rice for 1997-2001.  Projected yield is derived from a simple linear trend
fit by type of rice over 1982-2001 period.
