Agricultural Agencies:
The United States Department of
Agriculture and its agencies are the world's foremost source of fundamental information
for grain futures traders. The USDA and its agencies compile, store, and disseminate a
plethora of information regarding domestic and world agriculture. Each agency site is an
education in and of itself, so be prepared to spend a lot of time learning the in's and
out's of agriculture.

visit the agency report calendar's.

National Agricultural
Statistics Service: Crop progress, planting conditions, and
