That estimate is up slightly from last year’s corn acreage and would represent the highest U.S. planted acreage since 1936. http://www.cattlenetwork.com/cattle-news/markets/grains/outlook/USDA-Soybean-saless-set-new-marketing-year-low-again-166396376.html The USDA reported in its latest U.S. Exports Sales report that corn net sales of 122,800 metric tons (MT) for the 2011-2012 marketing year were down 30 percent from last week, but up 31 percent from the 4-week average. http://www.cattlenetwork.com/cattle-news/markets/grains/outlook/Global-2011-2012-coarse-grain-trade-projected-higher-142476505.html The USDA's March Feed Outlook report showed that world 2011/2012 coarse grain trade is forecast to reach 121.4 million tons, up 1.3 million this month. http://www.cattlenetwork.com/cattle-news/markets/grains/outlook/Projected-2011-2012-world-ending-stocks-reduced-142476055.html According to the USDA's Feed Outlook report, global coarse grain ending stocks for 2011/12 are projected down 0.6 million tons this month to 157.9 million, as increased forecast use exceeds the production increase. http://www.cattlenetwork.com/cattle-news/markets/grains/outlook/Increased-world-coarse-grain-consumption-projected-142475605.html The USDA's March Feed Outlook showed global coarse grain consumption in 2011/2012 is projected up 2.2 million tons this month to 1,152.0 million, with feed and residual use up 1.9 million tons to 664.7 million. http://www.cattlenetwork.com/cattle-news/markets/grains/outlook/World-coarse-grain-production-prospects-increase-142474845.html According to the USDA's Feed Outlook, global coarse grain production in 2011/12 is forecast up 1.5 million tons this month to 1,143.7 million. http://www.cattlenetwork.com/cattle-news/markets/grains/outlook/Domestic-wheat-situation-Ending-stocks-for-20112012-are-down-133811243.html Projected ending stocks for 2011/12, at 828 million bushels, are down 9 million bushels from October and down 34 million bushels from 2010/11. http://www.cattlenetwork.com/cattle-news/markets/grains/outlook/Larger-world-trade-projected-this-month-133811138.html High world grain production and supplies are lowering prices making grain imports for many countries more attractive.
