China has approved Brazilian traders to export corn to China, moving Brazil closer to supplying the Chinese market. China had relied mainly on the United States and Ukraine for corn, and Russia's invasion of Ukraine disrupted that supply.
Brazilian corn gaining access to China shifts trade flows away from US exporters, adding competition and pressuring US corn export prices.
