Grain & Oilseeds WASDE Update – Mar ’22

  • March 9, 2022March 9, 2022
  • by Belinda Przybylski

Corn – U.S. and Global Ending Stocks Mixed vs. Private Estimates

  • ’21-’22 U.S. ending stocks of 1.44 billion bushels below expectations
  • ’21-’22 global ending stocks of 301.0 million MT slightly above expectations

The ’21-’22 U.S. corn supply projection remained unchanged from the previous month while the demand projection was raised slightly on higher expected exports and ethanol demand. ’21-’22 projected U.S. corn ending stocks of 1.44 billion bushels, or 35.2 days of use, finished 6.5% below the previous month and 1.8% below expectations.

The ’21-’22 global corn ending stock projection finished 0.4% below the previous month but remained 0.5% above expectations. U.S. and Argentine corn stocks were revised most significantly lower, while Ukrainian stocks were projected higher as a decline in projected exports more than offset higher projected domestic feed usage. The March WASDE report represented an initial assessment of the short-term impacts of Russia’s recent military action in Ukraine. Vessel transportation throughout the Black Sea region is expected to be constrained by the Ukraine/Russia conflict and the imposition of economic sanctions.

Soybeans – U.S. and Global Ending Stocks Above Private Estimates

  • ’21-’22 U.S. ending stocks of 285 million bushels above expectations
  • ’21-’22 global ending stocks of 90.0 million MT above expectations

The ’21-’22 U.S. soybean supply projection remained unchanged from the previous month while the U.S. soybean demand projection was raised slightly on higher expected exports. ’21-’22 projected U.S. soybean ending stocks of 285 million bushels, or 23.5 days of use, finished 12.3% below the previous month but remained 2.2% above expectations.

The ’21-’22 global soybean ending stock projection finished 3.1% below the previous month but remained 1.4% above expectations. Brazilian soybean stocks were revised most significantly lower, as a reduction in production more than offset lower projected exports.

Soybean Complex – U.S. Oil and Meal Stocks Unchanged

The ’21-’22 U.S. soybean oil ending stock projection remained unchanged from the previous month as lower projected biofuel demand was offset by higher projected food, feed & industrial demand and export demand. Globally, the ’21-’22 soybean oil ending stock projection was raised from the previous month, led by projected increases experienced throughout European Union and India.

The ’21-’22 U.S. soybean meal ending stock projection also remained unchanged from the previous month as supply and demand projections remained consistent with previous month figures. Globally, the ’21-’22 soybean meal ending stock projection was raised from the previous month, led by increases in Southeast Asian stocks.

Wheat – U.S. and Global Ending Stocks Above Private Estimates

  • ’21-’22 U.S. ending stocks of 653 million bushels above expectations
  • ’21-’22 global ending stocks of 281.5 million MT above expectations

The ’21-’22 U.S. wheat supply and demand projections remained largely unchanged from the previous month. ’21-’22 projected U.S. wheat ending stocks of 653 million bushels, or 123.3 days of use, finished 0.8% above the previous month and 3.5% above expectations.

The ’21-’22 global wheat ending stock projection finished 1.2% above the previous month and 1.4% above expectations, largely on declines in projected Ukrainian and Russian exports.
