WASDE Report
The World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE) is prepared and released by the World Agricultural Outlook Board (WAOB). The report is released monthly, and provides annual forecasts for supply and use of U.S. and world wheat, rice, coarse grains, oilseeds, and cotton. The report also covers U.S. supply and use of sugar, meat, poultry eggs and milk, as well as Mexico’s supply and use of sugar. The WAOB chairs the Interagency Commodity Estimates Committees (ICECs), which include analysts from key USDA agencies who compile and interpret information from USDA and other domestic and foreign sources to produce the report. For more information about the WASDE process and data, visit the WASDE FAQs page.
NOTE: On May 13, 2026, the May World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE) report was reposted to correct an error in the Wheat by-Class table (Table 671-11). The US White wheat imports for the 25/26 marketing year were incorrectly shown as 5 million bushels; the correct value is 7 million bushels. As a result, the total imports for the Wheat by-Class table were also revised to 125 million bushels instead of 123 million bushels. Consequent corrections to total supply and ending stocks are also applied.
