The latest report of United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), the global wheat supplies are lowered 4.2 million tons to 748.23 million tonnes primarily due to sharp reductions in the India and Kazakhstan crops. Indian production is lowered 3.0million tons to 87.0million, which is well below the latest government of India estimate. The Kazakhstan crop is reduced 1.5 million tons on updated government statistics. Foreign exports are lowered 0.4 million tons with reductions for Kazakhstan and Russia more than offsetting increases for Argentina and Ukraine. 

Total global use for 2016/17 is raised 0.5 million tons with higher feed and residual use partially offset by a decline in food use. Vietnam and China feed and residual use is raised 1.3 million tons and 1.0 million tons, respectively. With global supplies falling and total use increasing, world ending stocks are lowered 4.7 million tons this month to 248.60 million tonnes.
