Overall Protein Market Drivers
$5.50-7.00 corn, $300-400 soybean meal
Limited feed supplies
Record-high meat and poultry exports
Value, and
Volume
Southwest drought, declining beef supply
Slow, but positive, domestic demand growth
All squeezing U.S. meat and poultry
availability, and thus strong prices

Why?
Continued tight feed supplies
=Higher feed costs, lower availability
=Need for higher product prices
=Need to cut production
Perceived risks on feed costs
Record-high meat and poultry exports
2008-2009 recession and lingering effects

2012 TURKEY
OUTLOOK DETAILS
14
FarmEcon LLC
A source of information on global
farming and food systems
Thomas E. Elam, PhD
President
2012 Summary
Current pricing and low ending
stocks imply modest 2012 turkey
industry production growth.
However, growth will be muted by
continued high feed costs, and the
need to recover those costs in
wholesale pricing.

2012 Turkey Outlook Features
 1/1/2012 cold storage near record low 2011 level
 Profitability supported by exports and pricing
 Production:








Q1 2012: very near 2011
Q2 2012: production +1% to +2%
Q3/Q4 2012: production also +1% to +2%
Flat or lower bird numbers, higher weights
Farbest adding 3 million birds, but not online until 2013
Exports expected to decline slightly
Lower beef and broiler supply, higher prices
Feed costs remain the major wild card

Blend Wall or Corn Wall?
E10 market is saturated
Requires about 13 billion gallons of ethanol
We produced 14 billion gallons in 2011
We exported 1 billion gallons
Why not sell more E85?
Ethanol BTUs are priced at 50% over gasoline
Parity is equal cost per BTU
Corn priced higher than energy parity
Why? The RFS is set too high

Corn/Soymeal Outlook – 2012
Cash corn prices remain at $5.50-$7.00, meal at $300-400,
through March/April (basis Illinois cash markets)
Upside risks on poor South America/Australia weather
U.S. acreage, weather and demand drive Jun-Dec prices
2012 predicted corn acreage up, soybeans down
Ethanol production will decline slightly (no tax credits)
Slightly less DDGS production, and ethanol use mandate =
increased corn demand
Increasing ethanol and DDGS exports
Energy prices are also critical to outlook
High volatility in all feed ingredient prices likely

What Would 165 Bu. Corn Do?
Record 14.3 billion bushel crop
Make it possible to price corn for:
E85 sales
Higher feed use
More exports
Build stocks
Likely season average farm price $3.35-$4.00
How likely, and is it repeatable?

What Would 145 Bu. Corn Do?
12.6 billion bushel crop
2012 crop = current use rate
No room to increase use
Higher 2013 RFS crowds out feeding and exports
Ethanol priced per gallon higher than gasoline
Likely season average farm price $7-$8
How likely? About the same chance as 165

Summary:
Continued high, and volatile, feed costs
$5+ corn & $300+ soybean meal=new normal
until a bumper corn crop
Feed cost volatility an ongoing issue
Four broiler company bankruptcies in 2011
Increasing RFS, weather, and limited acreage
are on a collision course
Another 2008 spike in the next 3-5 years?

What Needs to Happen?
RFS reform for conventional ethanol
Farm Bill reform to encourage acreage
Vigilance on the GIPSA/EPA/FDA fronts
