World agricultural supply and demand estimates

May 15, 2009 – This report presents USDA’s initial assessment of U.S. and world crop supply and demand prospects and U.S. prices for the 2009/10 season.

May 15, 2009 – This report presents USDA’s initial assessment of U.S. and world crop supply and demand prospects and U.S. prices for the 2009/10 season. Also presented are the first calendar-year 2010 projections of U.S. livestock, poultry, and dairy products.

Projections reflect economic analysis, normal weather, trends, and judgment. Because spring planting is still underway in the Northern Hemisphere and remains several months away in the Southern Hemisphere, these projections are highly tentative. National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) forecasts are used for U.S. winter wheat area, yield, and production. For other U.S. crops, the March 31 NASS Prospective Plantings report is used for planted acreage. Methods used to project harvested acreage and yield are noted on each table.
