Wheat: Market Outlook

Wheat Briefing Room Background Trade Market Outlook Policy Estimating Wheat Supply and Use

ERS conducts a variety of market outlook activities on the wheat industry. Details on major changes and events in domestic and world wheat markets are published 11 months of the year in Wheat Outlook (previously published outlook reports are also available). The Wheat Yearbook provides a recap of the previous market year and outlook for the current market year.

ERS—with the World Agricultural Outlook Board, the Agricultural Marketing Service, the Farm Service Agency, and the Foreign Agricultural Service—develops USDA's monthly World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE). WASDE provides a complete breakdown of the domestic and global supply and utilization situation for wheat.

Long-term supply utilization projections for wheat are published in USDA's Agricultural Baseline Projections. For further information on the supply and demand issues underlying the baseline for wheat, see:
