USDA's May WASDE projected 2019-20 U.S. corn ending stocks at 2.485 billion bushels and soybean ending stocks at 970 million bushels, both early new-crop estimates made before planting was complete. USDA also switched to a single midpoint price forecast and added a 'World less China' ending stocks line.
DTN analysts called the U.S. and world ending stocks estimates bearish for corn, soybeans and wheat.
Large projected new-crop carryouts signal ample supplies for feed grains and soybean meal, which pressures futures and feed prices unless planting delays or trade talks change the outlook.
