# Surprise: an Argentine crop with a new use won a battle against the United States in China

> Argentine sorghum prices rose about 12% in one month to 250,000 pesos per tonne, outpacing a 6% rise in corn. The recovery is attributed to Chinese purchases, and Argentina shipped 1.4 million tonnes of sorghum to China in the last campaign, more than the 1.03 million tonnes from the US.
