Prices are a fundamental component of exchange and have long been important to the functioning of agricultural markets. Grain prices are closely related to grain transportation, where the supply and demand for grain simultaneously determines both the price of grain, as well as the demand for grain transportation.

This data has corn, soybean, and wheat prices for a variety of locations. These include origins—such as Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska, and many others—and destinations, such as the Pacific Northwest, Louisiana Gulf, Texas Gulf, and Atlantic Coast.

The data come from three sources: USDA-AMS Market News price reports, GeoGrain, and U.S. Wheat Associates. Links are included below. GeoGrain offers granular data for purchase. The GeoGrain data here is an average of those granular prices for a given state (and the "Southeast" region, which combines Arkansas, Mississippi, and Alabama).

This is one of three companion datasets. The other two are grain basis (https://agtransport.usda.gov/d/v85y-3hep) and grain price spreads (https://agtransport.usda.gov/d/an4w-mnp7). These datasets are separate, because the coverage lengths differ and missing values are removed (e.g., there needs to be a cash price and a futures price to have a basis price).

This dataset contains historical price information for four major grains—wheat, corn, soybeans, and milo—spanning from 2000 to 2022. Each record includes the date and the respective price for each grain, offering a detailed view of price trends and fluctuations over a 23-year period. This dataset is valuable for analyzing historical price trends, comparing grain prices, and understanding market dynamics in the grain industry.

The Wholesale Price Index of food grains (cereals and pulses) across India during financial year 2025 was *****. An overall increase in the price index was seen over the years from financial year 2013 in the country.

The Nigerien grain market reached $19.5B in 2024, increasing by 1.8% against the previous year. In general, consumption, however, showed a abrupt decline. Grain consumption peaked at $44.5B in 2017; however, from 2018 to 2024, consumption stood at a somewhat lower figure.

A "spread" can have multiple meanings, but it generally implies a difference between two comparable measures. These can be differences across space, across time, or across anything with a similar attribute. For example, in the stock market, there is a spread between the highest price a buyer is willing to pay and the lowest price a seller is willing to accept.

In this dataset, spread refers to differences in prices between two locations, an origin (e.g., Illinois, Iowa, etc.) and a destination (e.g., Louisiana Gulf, Pacific Northwest, etc.). Mathematically, it is the destination price minus the origin price.

Price spreads are closely linked to transportation. They tend to reflect the costs of moving goods from one point to another, all else constant. Fluctuations in spreads can change the flow of goods (where it may be more profitable to ship to a different location), as well as indicate changes in transportation availability (e.g., disruptions). For more information on how price spreads are linked to transportation, see the story, "Grain Prices, Basis, and Transportation" (https://agtransport.usda.gov/stories/s/sjmk-tkh6).

This is one of three companion datasets. The other two are grain prices (https://agtransport.usda.gov/d/g92w-8cn7) and grain basis (https://agtransport.usda.gov/d/v85y-3hep). These datasets are separate, because the coverage lengths differ and missing values are removed (e.g., there needs to be a cash price and a futures price to have a basis price, and there needs to be both an origin and a destination to have a price spread).

The origin and destination prices come from the grain prices dataset.

The monthly price of wheat (hard red winter) in the United States reached an all time high in May 2022, at over *** U.S. dollars per metric ton. The unprecedented price increase began in mid-2020, due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, and was later exacerbated by the Russo-Ukrainian War in March 2022. Before the war, Russia and Ukraine were among the world's five largest wheat exporters, and around one third of all international wheat imports came from these two countries. The increase of 96 dollars per ton between February and March 2022 was the single largest price hike in U.S. history, and was only the second time that prices had exceeded 400 dollars - the first time this happened was due to the financial crisis of 2008. In the five years before the Covid-19 pandemic, the price of wheat generally fluctuated between 150 and 230 dollars per ton.

Learn about the various factors that influence grain commodity prices, including supply and demand, weather patterns, transportation costs, and government policies. Gain insight into how traders and analysts make predictions about price movements and why understanding these factors is crucial for farmers, traders, and consumers.

This statistic depicts the average annual prices for U.S. wheat (HRW) from 2014 through 2026*. In 2024, the average price for U.S. wheat (HRW) stood at 269 nominal U.S. dollars per metric ton.

This dataset provides a comprehensive and up-to-date collection of futures related to corn, oat, and other grains. Futures are financial contracts obligating the buyer to purchase and the seller to sell a specified amount of a particular grain at a predetermined price on a future date.

Use Cases: 1. Crop Yield Predictions: Use machine learning models to correlate grain futures prices with historical data, predicting potential harvest yields. 2. Impact Analysis of Weather Events: Implement deep learning techniques to understand the relationship between grain price movements and significant weather patterns. 3. Grain Price Forecasting: Develop time-series forecasting models to predict future grain prices, assisting traders and stakeholders in decision-making.

In 2024, the global cereal grain market decreased by -0.9% to $3,876.1B, falling for the second year in a row after three years of growth. The market value increased at an average annual rate of +1.4% from 2012 to 2024; the trend pattern remained consistent, with only minor fluctuations in certain years. Over the period under review, the global market hit record highs at $3,926.8B in 2022; however, from 2023 to 2024, consumption stood at a somewhat lower figure.

The monthly average price for normal wheat in Egypt amounted to 22.05 Egyptian pounds (0.71 U.S. dollars) per kilogram as of May 2023. During the period reviewed, the price was the highest ever recorded and increased slightly compared to the previous month, registering a growth of almost 1.9 percent. In November 2019, the average price dropped by one Egyptian pound and stayed constant until May 2020 before fluctuating and increasing in general. The previous relative stability in wheat prices was caused by the extensive involvement of the Egyptian government in all parts of the wheat value chain.   

A major crop for the Egyptians     

Grains constitute Egypt's most important crop group, with wheat as the most important grain of all. In 2021, the country produced nine million metric tons of the crop. Yet Egyptians consumed more than twice that number. The grain is fundamental to the Egyptian population's food staple. In order to meet a demand that is higher than the local production, the country imports the majority of its wheat. In fact, Egypt has held its position as the largest wheat importer globally for years.

Several shocks to the Egyptian grain market     

The increases in the crop's price since September 2021 were a result of several reasons. The increases in the global average price of cereals, as well as crops affected by weather conditions in major export nations were among the main causes. Furthermore, the Russia-Ukraine war has severe implications on the wheat supply globally and in Egypt. Both countries are leading wheat import partners of Egypt, aggregating 85 percent of the country's wheat imports in 2020. As of the same year, the volume of wheat imported from Russia stood at 14 million metric tons.
