Methodology

Ending stocks are the amount of grain left over at the close of the marketing year, once production, imports, consumption and exports have all been accounted for. They act as the safety margin available before the next harvest: the higher they are, the more room the market has to absorb a production shortfall or an unexpected rise in demand.

The stock-to-use ratio compares these ending stocks to the season's annual consumption. Expressed as a percentage, it lets crops with very different volumes be compared on the same relative scale, and shows over time whether reserves are tightening or rebuilding from one season to the next.

Production by origin is best read as shares rather than absolute volumes, because what matters for the market balance is each major producing region's relative contribution. An origin whose share falls, even if its volume still grows in absolute terms, weighs less on world supply than an origin whose share is rising.
