This report is a supplement to Feed Outlook, with a primary focus on corn. It discusses the production, consumption, supply, prices, and trade of feed grains and the domestic and global developments that contributed to changes in the above, such as an increase in biofuel production. World coarse grain outlooks and forecasts in production, supply, and consumption are also included within the report.

In 1997, ERS expanded Livestock, Dairy, and Poultry Outlook to include information formerly contained in Cattle and Sheep Outlook. The final issue of Cattle and Sheep Outlook was published November 13, 1996. This archive report contains detailed analysis and data covering the outlook for cattle and sheep, focusing on production, slaughter, price, and trade statistics.

This archived report does not contain recent information or data. This report examines the cattle cycle of the 1990s to determine if there are differences from previous cattle cycles and, if so, how and why differences occurred.

In early 1996, the peak in the current cycle of cattle inventories coincided with a long list of negative factors: negative returns at the farm and feedlot, record-high feed grain prices, a severe drought in 1995-96, widening farm-retail price spreads; Choice beef dollar, and reports of high profits for beef packers. This confluence created an atmosphere in which some producers and members of Congress questioned whether the cattle industry was adversely affected by high packer concentration and market power. Published April 1999.

This publication ceased production in 1986 and was published between 1981 and 1986. Factors affecting poultry industries, such as feed prices and droughts, are included, as well as trends and forecasts across several livestock industries, including hogs and cattle.

Includes data on number of annual turkeys raised, supply of hatching eggs, cost of production (including feed prices), storage stocks, supplies of other meats, and the production intentions for the coming year. This annual publication stopped in 1940.

This report contains data on the vegetable and melon industry (including potatoes, pulses, and mushrooms). It includes data on production, acreage, value, prices, imports, exports, per capita use, and beginning stocks.
