Meeting Future Food Needs• World population growth may slow from

1% to 0.5% by 2050

• Average net field crop output needs to rise at least 1% per year through 2050

• Ethanol from grain may be unsustainable

Meeting Future Food Needs(1991 = 100)

Food supplyneeds to grow

over 1% per year

0.5% Annual Yield Increase(kilograms per person per year)

Food shortagesand very high

prices

Trend Growth in Average Yield(kilograms per person per year)

Periods of tight supply, high

prices

Global Crop Production Outlook• Pulses are a minor crop the world’s perspective

• Canada’s pulse breeders think they can add an average 1% per year to yield with new varieties

• Pulses do not get same attention from plant breeders as rice, soybeans, or corn

• Long term yield gains may be smaller than 1%

Medium Term Outlook• Pulse production will rise in 2012

• Export prices should trend lower through 2014

• Easing prices may lead to lower pulse area in 2015 and 2016

• Export prices should start firming by 2016

Field Pea 2012 Outlook• Canadian acreage will be up because of good

movement and strong prices

• U.S. acreage will rise as farmers bring flooded land back into production

• France’s acreage will fall because the feed pea subsidy has been removed

• Prices should be lower on averagewww.statpub.com

Factors Driving Prices• Competition for acres and consumer

demand

• U.S. biofuel policy

• India’s population will grow faster than world average through 2050

• China’s population will peak in 15 yearswww.statpub.com

www.statpub.com

Battle For Acres• Farmers will not grow pulses unless they can

make as much or more money than growing other crops

• Consumers will not buy more pulses unless they are as cheap or cheaper than other foods

• As a result, all crops follow same price pattern

Field Crop Index vs. Crude Oil(2002-2004 = 100)

Shifting Population• World population growth will slow from

1% today to around 0.5% by 2050

• India’s population will grow faster than world average through 2050

• China’s population will peak in 15 years

China’s Declining Food Needs(1991 = 100)

Food needs will peak in 2020-30 as population peaks

www.statpub.com

India’s Growing Food Needs(1991 = 100)

As average age and incomes rise food needs will grow

India Pulse Demand Trend(million metric tons)

Usage could fluctuate3 million MT per year

Conclusion• Biofuel mandates may be unsustainable

• Plant breeders need to increase average yields and handling system needs to reduce losses

• Battle for acres will keep pulse prices relatively strong
