USDA Statistics, compiled by the United States Department of Agriculture, are a cornerstone resource for comprehensive data on U.S. and global agriculture. These datasets encompass production, acreage, yields, stocks, trade, prices, and consumption across major crops, livestock, and dairy sectors. Widely trusted by producers, traders, researchers, and policymakers, USDA’s reports—such as WASDE, Crop Progress, and Grain Stocks—are essential for tracking market fundamentals, supporting food security analysis, and informing strategic decisions across the agri-food supply chain.

The USDA data suite includes timely updates, historical series, forecasts, and regional breakdowns, enabling robust market analysis, yield projections, and trend identification. Users benefit from detailed reporting on planting intentions, export activity, weather impacts, and supply-demand balances, with tools for scenario modeling, benchmarking, and regulatory compliance.

USDA statistics are delivered through ICE Connect, equipping users with interactive dashboards, customizable visualization options, and detailed reporting tools to analyze agricultural data from every angle. For enterprises seeking direct integration or automated workflows, USDA datasets are also accessible via ICE’s API and bulk file delivery services, to help ensure smooth, reliable incorporation of authoritative agricultural intelligence into analytics environments, trading operations, and strategic planning platforms.
