USDA projected the 2021 US wheat carryover on June 1 at 925 million bushels, down 17 million from July and 11% below 2020. The agency raised 2020/21 exports 25 million bushels to 975 million, citing lower production in competitors, notably the EU.
A smaller projected carryover and higher exports tighten the US wheat balance sheet, which is supportive for prices.
