The May Feed Outlook report shows global coarse grains supply in 2026-27 is projected at 2,156 million metric tons (MT), 15 million MT lower than 2025-26. Spurring the projected supply decrease are expected declines in production, particularly in the U.S. but with notable declines in other major producing countries, including the European Union and Argentina.

The April Feed Outlook report shows global coarse grains production is raised for 2025-26. The foreign 2025-26 coarse grains supply forecast is raised slightly this month, driven primarily by an increased production forecast, with slight increases to beginning stocks and imports. 

The March Feed Outlook report shows global coarse grains production is raised for 2025-26. Foreign 2025-26 coarse grains production forecast is raised slightly this month, with gains expected across barley, corn, oats and sorghum and small reductions expected for millet and rye. The largest increase is for corn production – particularly Ukraine.

The February Feed Outlook report shows this month’s global coarse grains trade forecasts for both the 2024-25 and 2025-26 trade year are made on the observed pace of shipments and supply adjustments. The forecast for global sorghum trade is unchanged from last month.

The January Feed Outlook report shows estimates of the 2025-26 corn crop were elevated to 17 billion bushels. Corn production was already a record high prior to the update, subsequently the U.S. corn harvest was augmented by gains in harvested area – up 1.2 million acres and 1.3% from the prior forecast to 91.3 million.

The September Feed Outlook report shows corn area harvested is raised 1.356 million acres and area harvested for sorghum is raised 40,000 acres. Associated yields are lowered 2.1 bushels per acre for corn and raised 1.4 bushels for sorghum. Taken together, these changes result in production gains of 72.7 million bushels for corn and 10.7 million bushels for sorghum.

The July Feed Outlook report shows record-high U.S. corn production is projected for the 2025-26 marketing year, based on the season’s first survey-based corn-yield forecast of the year and updated area estimates from the USDA National Agricultural Statistics Service.

The July Feed Outlook report shows new data shape expectations for a net decrease for new-crop feed grains production, relative to the prior projections informed by the March-released Prospective Plantings report.
