# Strong Export Demand and Tight U.S. Stocks Support Argentine Corn Prices

> Robust demand for Argentine corn is underpinned by USDA raising Argentina's production estimate to 57 million tonnes and exports to 40 million tonnes. USDA also cut U.S. corn production to 403.7 million tonnes and exports to 83.19 million tonnes, leaving ending stocks at 44.7 million tonnes and supporting Chicago prices. Argentine corn trades at a $10-$16 per tonne discount to U.S. corn and $3-$8 per tonne versus Brazilian corn.
