# July WASDE Delivers Surprises and Marketing Challenge | FCSAmerica

> The July WASDE came in well off pre-report expectations, with 2024-25 U.S. corn ending stocks at 2.097 billion bushels versus a 2.272 billion trade average. U.S. all-wheat production was put at 2.008 billion bushels, above the trade range, and soybean ending stocks for both crop years came in below average expectations.

## Why it matters

The corn and soybean stock misses are bullish relative to what the market had priced in, while the larger wheat crop adds supply pressure. Buyers should expect firmer corn and soymeal costs and weaker wheat as the market adjusts.
