1 United States Department of Agriculture Foreign Agricultural Service Circular Series WAP December 2018 World Agricultural Ukraine Corn: Harvest Reports Cite Record USDA estimates Ukraine corn production for 2018/19 at a record 35.0 million metric tons (mmt), up 1.5 mmt from last month, up 10.9 mmt from last year and 4.1 mmt above the previous record crop which was harvested in Yield is estimated at 7.78 metric tons per hectare, 4 percent above last month and 43 percent above last year. The high yield is attributed to favorable growing conditions throughout the season. The estimated harvested area is unchanged at 4.5 million hectares. The yield reported by the Ministry of Agrarian Policy and Food as of December 4, 2018 was 21 percent above the previous high for that date. Harvest is 97 percent complete and will continue until mid-december. (For more information, please contact Mark.Lindeman@fas.usda.gov.) Approved by the World Agricultural Outlook Board

2 Romania Corn: Estimated Breaks 1984 Record Romania corn production for 2018/19 is estimated at a record 13.5 million metric tons (mmt), up 0.9 mmt (7 percent) from last month, up 1.6 mmt (13 percent) from last year, and 26 percent above the 5-year average. Area is estimated at 2.4 million hectares (mha), unchanged from last month, down 0.1 mha (4 percent) from last year, and down 6 percent from the 5-year average. Yield is estimated at a record 5.63 tons per hectare, up 7 percent from last month, up 18 percent from last year and up 34 percent from the 5-year average. While Romania is rich in arable land, it lacks substantial irrigation. Summer is often hot and dry which results in large variations in annual production. Harvest reports depict a very large 2018 crop due to plentiful summer rainfall. Typically, some growing regions in Romania fare better than others, but this year rainfall was plentiful and widespread, benefitting all regions. This is also the third consecutive annual increase for both yield and production. At the beginning of August, when corn is at its peak greenness, MODIS Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) was the highest in over 15 years of data. The corn harvest began in late August and ended in October. (For more information, please contact Bryan.Purcell@fas.usda.gov.)

3 South Africa Corn: Planting Continues Under Drought Conditions South Africa s 2018/19 corn production is forecast at 12.0 million metric tons (mmt), down 1 million tons from last month (8 percent) and down 1.5 mmt (11 percent) from last year. The USDA forecast includes output from both the developing and commercial sectors, with the commercial sector accounting for approximately 95 percent of the total crop. Area is estimated at 2.4 million hectares (mha), down 0.2 mha from last month (8 percent) and down 0.23 mha from last year (9 percent). Planting is currently underway but behind schedule due to below-average rainfall from October through early December. Additional rainfall is needed in December to improve soil moisture conditions for corn germination and establishment. Planting is expected to conclude by mid-january. Yield is forecast at 5.0 metric tons per hectare, slightly above the 10-year trend (2 percent) and it assumes normal weather for the remainder of the growing season. According to the planting intentions survey released in late October by South Africa s Crop Estimates Committee (CEC), the total intended planted area is 2.83 mha with the commercial sector planting 2.45 mha and the developing sector planting 0.38 mha. Other industry sources estimate area below 2.83 mha due to the severe drought and because of low prices. The previous two seasons have had bumper crops which resulted in high carry-over stocks. Last year started off very dry too, but plentiful rains in January 2018 benefited the crop. South African farmers will harvest their corn crop from April through September and the bulk of the harvest (87 percent) is typically delivered to the silos from May through August.

4 Brazil Soybeans: Record Forecast due to Higher Yield Brazil soybean production for 2018/19 is forecast at a record 122 million metric tons (mmt), up 1.5 mmt (1 percent) from last month and up 1 percent from the previous year. Harvested area is estimated at 36.2 million hectares, down 3 percent from last month, but up 3 percent from last year. Soybean area expansion continues for the thirteenth straight year, with the most significant 2018/19 gains forecast for the Center-West region and the state of Rio Grande do Sul. Planting has progressed at a faster-than-average pace, with planting already more than 90 percent complete. Yield is forecast at 3.37 metric tons per hectare, up 5 percent from last month but 2 percent below last year s record crop, which benefited from favorable weather and improved technology that raised yields to record levels almost everywhere. This year s crop has also benefited from favorable weather thus far and varies in development from late vegetative to flowering. In many soybean areas, MODIS Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) reveals that the developing vegetation is at a more advanced stage than during the same time last year. Most of the soybean crop will be harvested from January to May. (For more information, please contact Maria.Anulacion@fas.usda.gov). Foreign Agricultural Service/USDA 4 December 2018

5 India Rapeseed: Forecast Down due to Drop in Area USDA forecasts 2018/19 India rapeseed production at 6.0 million metric tons (mmt), down 0.45 mmt from Area is forecast at 6.0 million hectares (mha), down 0.5 mha from last month and unchanged from last year. This nearly 8- percent drop in area is due to drier and warmer conditions at planting. Yield is forecast at 1.0 metric ton per hectare, unchanged from last month and down nearly 7 percent from last year. As of November 11, 2018, the Ministry of Agriculture reported that rapeseed planting is 95 percent complete at 5.78 mha. The major rapeseed producers are Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, and Uttar Pradesh. (For more information, please contact Arnella.Trent@fas.usda.gov.) Indonesia Palm Oil: Estimated Increased Due to Higher Yield Foreign Agricultural Service/USDA 5 December 2018

6 USDA estimates Indonesia 2018/19 palm oil production at 41.5 million metric tons (mmt), up 1.0 mmt from last month and up 2.0 mmt from last year. The production increase is driven by high yields as favorable weather has benefited the crop. The estimated yield increase would mark the third consecutive year of rebounding yields following the 2015/16 El Niño event, which hit palmproducing areas in southern Sumatra and Kalimantan. Yield is estimated at 3.67 metric tons per hectare, up 2 percent from last month and up 2 percent from last year. Harvested area is estimated at 11.3 million hectares, unchanged from last month, but up 3 percent from last year. (For more information, please contact Justin.Jenkins@fas.usda.gov.) Thailand Rice: Estimated Decreases on Limited Water Supplies USDA estimates Thailand 2018/19 rice production at 20.7 million metric tons (milled basis), down 2 percent from last month but up 2 percent from last year. Harvested area is estimated at 11 million hectares, down 2 percent from last month but up 3 percent from last year. The month-to-month area change was attributed to insufficient water supplies for the dry-season (second-season) crop in the northern and northeastern regions, which accounts for 10 percent of the total dry-season rice production. The dry-season crop accounts for about 30 percent of total rice production. Reservoir levels in the northern and northeastern regions were reported by Thailand s Royal Irrigation Department at 48 percent lower than last year s levels due to unusually low rainfall, most notably in the southern part of the northern region. Yield is estimated at 2.86 tons per hectare, down slightly from last month and last year. (For more information, please contact Justin.Jenkins@fas.usda.gov.) Nigeria Rice: Record Expected Nigeria s 2018/19 milled rice production is estimated at a record 4.79 million metric tons (mmt), up 1.0 mmt (27 percent) from last month and up 0.1 mmt (3 percent) from last year. Area is estimated at 3.6 million hectares (mha), up 0.4 mha (13 percent) from last month and unchanged from last year. Yield is estimated at 2.11 metric tons per hectare, up 13 percent from last month and up 11 percent from the 5-year average. Seasonal rainfall was average to above average during the 2018 growing season, with September floods in the north-central part of the country slightly reducing potential output. Foreign Agricultural Service/USDA 6 December 2018

7 Nigeria s rice area and production have increased during the past five years due to numerous government policies that promote increased rice area, productivity, milling capacity, and dry-season production. Increases in irrigated dry-season production have reportedly occurred in the major rice producing regions in the north-central, northwest, and northeast parts of the country. Nigeria is the largest rice producer in Africa and rice is planted in almost all administrative states. Rice is typically grown during the wet season from April through December and irrigated dry-season production is from October through June.

8 USDA estimates Australia s 2018/19 rice crop at 153,000 metric tons on a rough basis (110,000 tons milled), down 0.3 mmt (73 percent) from last month, and down 340,000 tons (76 percent) from last year. Harvested area is expected to total 15,000 hectares, down 40,000 hectares from last month and down 45,000 hectares (75 percent) from last year. Yield is forecast at tons per hectare. The sharp decrease in estimated area is attributed to very limited availability of affordable water for irrigation and reduced water allocations in southern New South Wales. Water storage is down due to several months of drought in the catchment region. Rice is predominately produced in southern New South Wales as an irrigated crop. The Murray River and the Murrumbidgee River each contribute nearly half of the water used for irrigation. (For more information, please contact James.Crutchfield@fas.usda.gov.) Australia Wheat: Estimated Revised Down USDA estimates Australia s 2018/19 wheat crop at 17.0 million metric tons (mmt), down 0.5 mmt (3 percent) from last month, and down 4.3 mmt (20 percent) from last year. Harvested area is Foreign Agricultural Service/USDA 8 December 2018

9 expected to total 10.0 million hectares (mha), down 0.8 mha from last month and down 2.25 mha (18 percent) from last year. Yield is forecast at 1.70 tons per hectare, 17 percent below the 5-year average. Persistent dryness and subsoil moisture deficits in major portions of Australia s winter crop region contributed to an estimated 17-percent drop in yield from the 5-year average. Precipitation has been well below average since major sowing operations commenced in May. Satellite-derived seasonal vegetation indices from October reveal the sharp differences in crop conditions between Western Australia and New South Wales, the two largest wheat producing states. Winter crops are sown in May and June. Harvest begins in November and is finished by the end of December. (For more information, please contact James.Crutchfield@fas.usda.gov.) Turkey Cotton: Harvest Ends with Estimated Record Crop USDA estimates 2018/19 Turkey cotton production at 4.3 million 480-pound bales, down 0.2 million from last month, up 8 percent from last year s record, and up 40 percent from the 5-year average. Harvested area is estimated at 520,000 hectares, unchanged from last month, up 11 percent from last year and up 30 percent from the 5-year average. Yield is estimated at 1,800 kilograms per hectare, down 4 percent from last month, down 3 percent from last year, but up 9 percent from the 5-year average. Planting began with ample soil moisture, and in some areas excessive rainfall necessitated replanting. Although weather was extremely favorable with exceptional growing conditions throughout the season, localized excessive rainfall and insect damage likely reduced yield in the Aegean and GAP (Southeastern Anatolia) regions. Harvest is complete. (For more information, please contact William.Baker@fas.usda.gov.) Foreign Agricultural Service/USDA 9 December 2018

10 Brazil Cotton: Record Forecast on Higher Area and Yield Brazil cotton production for 2018/19 is forecast at a record 11.0 million 480-lb bales, up 1 million bales (10 percent) from last month, and up 1.8 million bales (19 percent) from last year. Harvested area is forecast at 1.4 million hectares, up 8 percent from last month and up 19 percent from last year. Yield is forecast at 1,711 kilograms per hectare, up 2 percent from last month and almost equal to last year s record. Higher prices and two seasons of record yields have encouraged producers to increase area for the second consecutive year. Recent gains in yields are attributed to improved technology in the cotton sector, in combination with favorable weather. Planting of first-crop cotton began in November; however, the majority of cotton is second crop and is planted after soybeans are harvested in January and February. Most of the cotton crop will be harvested from May to August. (For more information, please contact Maria.Anulacion@fas.usda.gov). Foreign Agricultural Service/USDA 10 December 2018
