The world wheat market saw record production in the 2013/2014 year at 712 million tons of production compared to 656 million tons the previous year. Consumption also increased to 704 million tons. This led to higher ending stocks of 184 million tons compared to 176 million tons previously. The largest exporters like the US, Canada, and Black Sea region all saw changes in production levels, with Canada seeing a large increase. Global stocks remained at relatively normal levels. Local South African wheat is driven by imports, which make up 45% of consumption, and currency exchange rates.

Supreme Flour World Wheat Presentation (October 2012)Supreme Flour
The document summarizes the global wheat market and supply/demand situation. World wheat production for 2012/13 is estimated at 653 million tons, down from the 2011/12 record but above 2010/11 levels. Global wheat consumption is also expected to decrease by 2.4% from the previous year. As a result, world ending stocks are forecasted to decline 12.6% to 173 million tons in 2012/13. China accounts for over 30% of total world wheat stocks. The black sea region experienced a large drop in wheat production due to weather issues.

This document discusses the opportunities and challenges for protected agriculture in GCC countries. It summarizes that GCC countries import around 90% of their food needs due to limited arable land and water scarcity. Protected agriculture can help address food security issues by significantly increasing yields of vegetables and reducing water usage compared to open field farming. Greenhouse production has been shown to yield 6-10 times higher than open fields and use water 28-43 times more efficiently. Challenges include lack of research, infrastructure, human resources and subsidies to support wider adoption of protected agriculture technologies in the GCC.

1) Agricultural production and yields have increased significantly globally since 1990, especially in developing countries like China and India, while land use per capita has declined.
2) Greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture have risen notably worldwide due to increased production, though emissions intensity per unit of output has decreased in most regions.
3) Most major countries and regions have shifted from grain deficits to surpluses since 1990, while livestock product balances have also improved, reflecting higher yields and growing global trade.
Sorghum is the third most important cereal crop worldwide in terms of production and area, after rice and wheat. It is grown extensively in tropical and subtropical regions of the world, particularly in Africa and Asia where it serves as a major food source. In India, sorghum production has declined from 18 million hectares in the 1960s to 5.65 million hectares currently, however total production has remained steady due to yield increases. Jammu and Kashmir produces sorghum on a very small scale, primarily for local cattle feed, with production never exceeding 1000 hectares except in 2004-05 and 2005-06 when it reached 5980 and 1420 hectares respectively.
The International Grains Council’s 24th annual conference, held in London on 9 June 2015, brought together some 300 traders, policymakers and other industry professionals. Meeting under the theme “Building on success, responding to challenges,” delegates from 48 countries gathered to assess the recent shifts in market fundamentals, which has seen global grains and oilseeds inventories build to near-record levels, with prices dropping to multi-year lows. As well as being a key forum for the exchange of views, the conference provided a valuable networking opportunity, bringing together a unique mix of participants from private and public sectors.

Week of March 15th. Updates on wheat availability and country vulnerability
Indian farmers are facing distress due to 10 key reasons: 1) successive drought years, 2) collapsing farm prices due to low international prices and imports, 3) failure of crop insurance schemes to provide adequate support, 4) delays in irrigation projects, 5) outdated agricultural marketing systems, 6) lack of modern technology adoption, 7) fragmented supply chains causing major post-harvest losses, 8) lack of food processing clusters, 9) delayed reforms of the Food Corporation of India, and 10) low agricultural productivity compared to other countries. While the government has allocated significant funds, slow implementation of projects and reforms has not provided relief to distressed farmers.
1) The document analyzes data from the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) on trends in global food security and agriculture between 1990-2018, finding that while world population grew significantly, agricultural production increased through different means across regions.
2) Key trends included emerging economies like China, Brazil, and India playing a larger role in lifting world averages, while African agriculture grew more slowly. Total agricultural emissions increased globally as production rose, though the EU produced more with less emissions.
3) Food balances showed increasing grain deficits in Africa and Asia being met by surpluses in the US and Brazil, while China's growing soybean deficit was met by increased US and Brazilian surpluses. Beef production shifted

1) India has a population of over 1.2 billion people as of the 2011 census, with over 800 million living in rural areas and over 260 million working in agriculture.
2) Fertilizer production and consumption in India is significant, with over 15 million tonnes produced and over 25 million tonnes consumed annually to support agriculture and food production.
3) However, fertilizer use efficiency is relatively low in India, at 30-50% for nitrogen and 15-20% for phosphorus, due to issues like soil nutrient imbalances, lack of awareness on balanced nutrition, and poor crop management practices.
Climate change will significantly impact global and regional agricultural production and food security according to a new analysis. The analysis uses an integrated modeling system called IMPACT to assess scenarios involving different levels of climate change and socioeconomic development. It projects substantial negative effects of climate change on crop yields in many regions by 2050, especially in Africa and South Asia. These yield declines could reduce gains in food availability and increase prices, potentially leaving hundreds of millions more people at risk of hunger. However, increased investment in technologies and practices such as drought-tolerant crops could help offset some climate change impacts and improve food security outcomes. Addressing climate change poses major challenges for decision-makers seeking to ensure global food security.
This document provides a summary of the July 2009 World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates report from the USDA. It outlines revisions made this month to global supply and demand forecasts for various agricultural commodities, including increases in projections for US wheat and corn production. Global coarse grain production was also raised, while rice production estimates were lowered. Forecasts for oilseed and soybean production were increased. Price projections for hogs, eggs, and several crops were lowered on expectations of higher supplies.

India has a large and rapidly expanding poultry sector, as it is the second largest developing economy and sixth largest producer of poultry meat. Growth is mainly due to structural changes like integrated farming reducing costs and increasing consumption. Integrated farming is highly developed in the south but less so in other regions, representing opportunities for further growth. Improving infrastructure, disease control, markets, and feed costs could further boost the poultry industry across India.

Six classes of US wheat is planted and harvested in almost every month of the year and is recognised as being one of the most reliable globally which can fit precisely to almost every end-use product.
The document provides updates to global agricultural supply and demand estimates for wheat, coarse grains, rice, oilseeds, sugar, livestock, cotton, and dairy. Key points include:
- U.S. wheat ending stocks are raised and export projections are lowered. Global wheat supplies and ending stocks are also projected to increase.
- U.S. corn and sorghum price forecasts are lowered. Global coarse grain production is raised, led by increases for China, Canada, and Russia.
- World rice production is projected at a record high while ending stocks increase slightly.
- U.S. soybean crush and soybean oil exports are raised while price forecasts for soybeans and products are lowered
- The USDA report projects lower U.S. wheat, corn, and rice supplies for the 2012/13 season due to reduced yields from heat and drought. Global wheat and coarse grain supplies are also projected lower.
- U.S. corn production is forecast at 10.8 billion bushels, the lowest since 2006/07, leading to sharply higher projected corn prices of $7.50 to $8.90 per bushel.
- Global wheat trade is projected to shift as Russian exports are lowered 4 million tons and exports are raised for Ukraine, Canada, and the EU. World wheat ending stocks are forecast 5.3 million tons lower.
The document provides a summary of the World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates report from the USDA for November 2012. It summarizes changes made this month to projections for various crops including wheat, coarse grains, rice and oilseeds. Key points include projected increases in US wheat and corn ending stocks, lower global wheat production, and higher US soybean production and exports. Livestock and dairy forecasts are also adjusted.
World wheat production is expected to increase by 6.4% in the 2011/12 year to a record 694 million tons. World wheat consumption is also forecasted to rise by 4.6% to 684 million tons. However, world ending stocks are still expected to increase to 210 million tons, up 5.5% from the previous year. China and India are the largest consumers of wheat, using 115 million and 90 million tons per year respectively. In South Africa, local wheat production is forecasted to rise to 1.95 million tons for the 2011/12 year, reducing import needs to around 1.5 million tons.
The Director-General of the FAO provided a summary of the global food security situation and risks posed by the war in Ukraine in a presentation to G7 Agriculture Ministers. Key points included:
1) Nearly 200 million people faced crisis levels of food insecurity in 2021 according to the Global Food Crises Report.
2) FAO sees risks to global food/agriculture from direct conflict effects, macroeconomic factors, and humanitarian impacts.
3) Ukraine and Russia are major exporters of wheat, maize, and oilseeds, and their reduced exports are tightening global supplies and raising prices.
4) Many countries heavily rely on Ukrainian and Russian wheat and are seeking new suppliers.
5) The
MORE good news this month for feed raw material consumers’ costs: The world supply outlook for maize seems to be getting looser by the month, pushing prices down to yet more historical (33-month) lows as we go to press. Not only has the US crop turned out even bigger than expected in our last review; the second largest consumer of maize, China, now appears to be using considerably less than estimated earlier. Top outlet for maize, the USA might also need less than expected as we move into 2014 after proposals to roll back targets for renewable fuel use.
This document provides a summary of the September 2012 World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates report from the USDA. Some key points:
- U.S. wheat and coarse grain production estimates are lowered slightly, while rice production is increased. Global wheat and coarse grain supplies are also lowered.
- U.S. soybean production and supplies are forecast lower, while livestock production estimates are mixed - beef up but pork and poultry down.
- Many global crop production forecasts are adjusted, including decreases for Russia, EU, and increases for China and Philippines for rice. Global oilseed production is also lowered.
Constantly rising wheat crop estimates, record large global stocks of cereals in total and mostly ‘yield-friendly’ weather in the Northern hemisphere have continued to erode grain prices over the past month, resulting in US wheat trading near 10-year lows.
The USDA report projects small changes to global agricultural supply and demand estimates for March 2013. Global wheat production and trade are projected to increase slightly due to higher estimates for India, the EU, and Ukraine. US wheat exports are forecasted lower, increasing domestic stocks. Global coarse grain production is forecasted slightly lower due to reductions for Argentina, South Africa, and Australia offsetting increases for India and the US. Oilseed production is projected marginally down while sugar supply is up for the US. Livestock and poultry production forecasts are mixed, with beef, broilers and turkey projected higher while pork production is expected to decline. Milk production is forecasted to rise for the US.
This document summarizes projections from the USDA for various agricultural commodities in the United States and globally for 2012/13:
- U.S. wheat ending stocks are projected lower due to higher feed use and lower exports. Global wheat production and exports are also projected lower.
- U.S. corn production and ending stocks are projected lower due to lower yields and exports. Global coarse grain production and ending stocks are also projected lower.
- U.S. rice production is projected higher due to record yields. Global rice production is slightly higher but ending stocks are projected lower.
- U.S. soybean production, exports, and ending stocks are projected higher. Global oilseed production is
World population has increased 133% since 1960 while food production has increased 237% due to factors like rural to urban migration, improved life expectancy, and rising incomes. However, inefficiencies remain in the supply chain between producers and consumers. China is now the largest meat producer in the world while the US and Brazil have grains to feed their animals. Brazil accounts for 11% of global meat production with less than 3% of the world's population. Growth in Brazilian agricultural production will come from converting degraded pastures, intensifying livestock production, and using new technologies. This will help meet rising demand from China's social inclusion plan to lift 440 million people out of poverty by 2022.

This document provides a summary of the June 2012 World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates report from the USDA. Some key points:
1) U.S. wheat supplies are projected to decrease for the 2012/13 season due to reduced carryover stocks and winter wheat production. Global wheat supplies are also expected to decrease due to reduced production prospects in major exporting countries.
2) U.S. coarse grain supplies are largely unchanged for 2012/13 as adjustments to 2011/12 balance sheets offset. Global coarse grain supplies are projected to increase due to higher beginning stocks and corn production.
3) U.S. rice supplies are projected tighter for 2012/13 due to a reduction in 2011/
The document discusses projections for U.S. and global agricultural commodity markets in 2012-2013. Key points include:
- U.S. corn prices are high while soy prices are expected to decline more than corn. Corn acreage and yields in the U.S. are expected to increase after two years of below trend yields.
- Global corn and wheat production is expanding to meet demand, but record world wheat stocks will keep pressure on wheat prices. Uncertainty around China's import demand and South American crop conditions will impact markets.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation ParametersSafe Software
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.

Bram Verhoef, Head of Machine Learning at Axelera AI, presents the “How Axelera AI Uses Digital Compute-in-memory to Deliver Fast and Energy-efficient Computer Vision” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
As artificial intelligence inference transitions from cloud environments to edge locations, computer vision applications achieve heightened responsiveness, reliability and privacy. This migration, however, introduces the challenge of operating within the stringent confines of resource constraints typical at the edge, including small form factors, low energy budgets and diminished memory and computational capacities. Axelera AI addresses these challenges through an innovative approach of performing digital computations within memory itself. This technique facilitates the realization of high-performance, energy-efficient and cost-effective computer vision capabilities at the thin and thick edge, extending the frontier of what is achievable with current technologies.
In this presentation, Verhoef unveils his company’s pioneering chip technology and demonstrates its capacity to deliver exceptional frames-per-second performance across a range of standard computer vision networks typical of applications in security, surveillance and the industrial sector. This shows that advanced computer vision can be accessible and efficient, even at the very edge of our technological ecosystem.

Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024Hiroshi SHIBATA
I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.

[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...Jason Yip
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

9. International Wheat Factors
Record 2013/14 world wheat crop – increase of 7.8% from last season, +51
million tons.
Approximately 20% of all wheat globally goes into the feed market and with
the Chicago corn / wheat spread at US$2.30 / buschel - battle.
In spite of problems in South America (frost in Brazil and smaller plantings in
Argentina) – not bullish internationally (Canada and Australia – larger crops).
New season Northern Hemisphere – US / Black Sea / EU plantings look good
– start harvest in June 2014
