The "World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates" (WASDE) is a monthly report published by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) providing comprehensive forecasts of supply and demand for major global crops and U.S. livestock. The report provides an analysis of the fundamental condition of the agricultural commodity markets and is beneficial to farmers, governments and other market participants. The "WASDE" report is compiled using information from a number of statistical reports produced by the USDA and other governmental agencies.
