Corn rose on May 14, 2021, after USDA cut its 2020/21 Brazilian corn estimate in the May WASDE. Persistent drought in southern Brazil after delayed planting is expected to limit yields on about 40% of affected acres.
USDA also reported new-crop export sales of 82.1 million bushels, a weekly high.
Brazilian production losses tighten global corn supply and support export demand for US corn. This adds upward pressure on corn prices.
