Week 9: Cool resource

It is World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE) report provides expected supply and demand for not only U.S. but also global crops and livestock. In addition to literature on price, this report gives statistic data published by USDA and other government agencies.  It is better idea of keeping eyes on the report, and use it when you trade.
