# USDA Projects Rise in World Oilseed Production, Expects Higher Consumption, Reduces Ending Stock Estimates

> The USDA projects world oilseed production to rise 5% in 2020-21 to a record 605.9 million tonnes, with soybean output up 26.6 million tonnes to a record 362.8 million. Global oilseed consumption is forecast to grow 2%, the fastest pace since 2017/18, helped by recovering Chinese feed demand after African swine fever.

## Why it matters

Record supply is bearish for oilseed prices, but stronger consumption and reduced ending stocks partly offset that and support meal demand for feed.
