Crop Commodities Market Insights and Forecasting

Agricultural commodities are at an interesting and dynamic crossroads, as demand is surging for feedstuffs at a time when food is increasingly looked to as a solution to reduce carbon in motor fuels. Can agricultural production meet the needs for food, feed, and fuel without impacting sensitive land and rainforests?

Additionally, the cost of production continues to rise with higher fertilizer and transportation costs. This creates challenges for global agricultural systems whose power is shifting to places like Brazil, the Black Sea, and Asia. This shift is causing food and agricultural commodity prices to be impacted by currency fluctuations, governmental policy changes, and political tensions like never before.

SEARCH SECTORS

Acreage and Production

Market prices are influenced during the period when commodities are developing, and in the case of crops like wheat development is monitored over a long period from September when it is planted until the summer months when it is harvested, with the key yield-determining period being the spring months.

Corn & Feed Grains

Between the major feed grains produced around the world (corn, sorghum, barley, and oats), corn is the dominant grain ingredient used in animal feed.

Cotton

Cotton lint is a major fibre for textile products and other industrial and consumer products. The usage of cotton is highly dependent on consumer attitudes, fashion and taste, disposable income and the price of competing fibres.

Oil & Oilseeds

The amount of vegetable oil produced by crushing seeds, including soybeans, canola and sunflowers combined with combined oils produced from other plant parts such palm kernels and flesh is increasing steadily.

Rice

Rice is the primary staple food for more than half the world’s population. Its second primary use is the production of alcoholic beverages, and it also used to produce pet food.

Soybean

Soybeans are an important source of protein and vegetable oil used globally. The crop is primarily produced in three country’s: Brazil, US and Argentina.

Transportation

Transportation is vital to the flow and cost of goods domestically and internationally. It is the backbone of domestic and global growth. Infrastructure plays a key role in transportation cost.

Wheat

Approximately 80% of global wheat consumption goes directly into food and seed use. There are 11 wheat-producing countries, spread between the northern and southern hemispheres, which account for more than 85% of global production.
