![]() Key Features and Take Aways Record-smashing global harvest and large stock build in 2013/14 – Record harvested area and yield – Significant pent-up demand – How low will prices have to fall in order to clear markets? • Need to reach the trigger point that unleashes pent-up demand and dulls supply growth • More downside but no collapse in agricultural commodity prices All eyes on the corn market – Great news from the January 10 USDA reports, but . . . – Large stock build this year and the potential for another significant build in 2014/15 – Changes in U.S. 2014 blending mandate – impact more psychological than fundamental for now – Chinese imports a bigger concern – Fewer corn acres needed in 2014, but what will farmers plant A wide range of potential outcomes in 2014/15 Food story still intact in the long run Less robust but still constructive plant nutrient demand drivers – Decent plant nutrient affordability – Lower but continued profitable farm economics – Elevated farm income and strong balance sheets 7 |
![]() The view from 60,000 feet (dumping all crops in the same basket) 8 The world harvested a monster crop in 2013/14 due to record harvested area and yield. Last year’s smaller than expected crop (but still the second largest!) resulted in record prices for several commodities. Record prices destroyed demand and allocated smaller supplies to their highest valued uses. Global use increased just 0.4% compared to a CAGR of 2.4% during the previous five years. Use is projected to increase 4.3% in 2013/14 due to pent-up demand. This year’s record crop is big enough to meet the rebound in demand (two year’s worth) and rebuild the all of the inventory drawn-downs during the last three years. 2.40 2.50 2.60 2.70 2.80 2.90 3.00 3.10 3.20 800 820 840 860 880 900 920 940 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13E MT Ha Mil Ha World Grain and Oilseed Area and Yields Harvested Area Yield Trend Source: USDA 2.0 2.1 2.2 2.3 2.4 2.5 2.6 2.7 2.8 2.9 3.0 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13E Bil Tonnes World Grain and Oilseed Production Production Use Source: USDA 607 580 494 407 470 463 427 439 515 571 550 535 515 570 15.0% 17.5% 20.0% 22.5% 25.0% 27.5% 30.0% 350 400 450 500 550 600 650 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13E Percent Mil Tonnes World Grain & Oilseed Stocks Stocks Percent of Use Source: USDA |

![]() All eyes on the corn market 12 The USDA’s January 10 reports delivered good news for the crop input supply industry. Lower projected U.S. production and inventories as well as a bump in use caused a sharp rally in corn prices and eased fears that corn could drop to less than $4 bu heading into the spring planting season. However, world and U.S. corn inventories still are projected to increase sharply due to the bumper U.S. crop as well as record crops in other parts of the world such as Brazil. Market is expected to closely watch South American crop progress, U.S. Prospective Plantings survey results and Chinese imports for future direction. 0 7 14 21 28 35 42 49 56 63 70 0.0 0.5 1.0 1.5 2.0 2.5 3.0 3.5 4.0 4.5 5.0 70 73 76 79 82 85 88 91 94 97 00 03 06 09 12 Percent Bil Bu U.S. Corn Stocks Stocks Percent of Use Source: USDA 5% 10% 15% 20% 25% 30% 35% 40% 45% 50% 0 25 50 75 100 125 150 175 200 225 70 73 76 79 82 85 88 91 94 97 00 03 06 09 12 Percent Mil Tonnes World Corn Stocks Stocks Percent of Use Source: USDA 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 70 74 78 82 86 90 94 98 02 06 10 Bil Bu U.S. Corn Use Exports Feed and Residual Food & Industrial Source: USDA |
![]() Impact of a lower ethanol RFS is more psychological than economic at this point 13 The ethanol blending mandate was scheduled to increase to 14.4 billion gallons in 2014, but the EPA has proposed to lower the RFS to 13.01 billion gallons in order to align it more closely with the E10 blend wall (current U.S. gasoline demand is about 133 billion gallons). The 1.3 billion gallon decline is equal to about 465 million bushels of corn or almost 3 million harvested acres. However, ethanol production never would have increased by this amount due to the E10 blend wall. The change likely will have a much greater psychological impact than fundamental impact on the corn market.

The government has raised minimum support prices for major crops, retail urea prices remain stable at the extremely low level of $80-$85 per tonne, and retail P&K prices, while up sharply from pre- reform levels, have declined modestly in 2013/14. As a result, retail dealer DAP sales to farmers are projected to total 9.8 million tonnes this fertilizer year. Producer and importer sales, however, are projected to drop to 7.8 million tonnes, implying a retail inventory decline of 2.0 million tonnes. In addition, producer/importer inventories also are projected to decline 250,000 tonnes in 2013/14. |

![]() Factors to Watch and Handicap |
![]() Factors to Watch and Handicap 42 Agricultural Commodity Prices – South American crop progress • The market likely has baked in a record soybean crop but it could further weigh on prices once it is in the bin (Feb/Mar) – Energy, biofuels and livestock prices • But proposed changes to the U.S. RFS in 2014 likely will have only a limited impact in the near term – U.S. Prospective Plantings report on March 31 • Less corn acreage is required but will farmers plant too much if 2015 new crop is $4.50+ and it is an early spring? – China soybean (how large?) and corn (how low) imports – Macroeconomic developments and their impact on exchange rates – Instincts of the large speculative herd – what might drive them in or spook them out? |
![]() Factors to Watch and Handicap 43 Other P&K Fundamentals – Global pipeline and producer inventories • The “P” pig is moving through the python but when will the python swallow the “K” pig? – Developments in India • Plant nutrient subsidy rates (2014/15 budget tabled by February 28) • Settlement of P&K contracts – Developments in China • Settlement of K contract • Phosphate exports – what volume at what price? – New P&K supplies in 2014 • Continued ramp-up of Ma'aden production and commissioning of OCP granulation and acid plants • Indian JV plants in Tunisia (Tifert) and Jordan (Jifco) • Continued start-up of brownfield K projects and management of Canpotex proving runs Triggers that could change sentiment – Settlement of large contracts in China and India – Agricultural commodity price breakout from current range – Unexpected supply disruption (e.g. mine/plant outage or transportation glitch) – Political or macroeconomic event |
