China's December 2025 corn imports rose 44.2% month over month to 800,861 mt, the third monthly gain in a row, with Brazil supplying most of it. Total 2025 corn imports of 2.647 million mt fell short of expectations.
Wheat imports fell 65% in December to 3.89 million mt.
Strong Brazilian corn flows and better import margins support Brazilian corn competition in China, keeping pressure on US corn export prospects and feed grain prices.
