Mexico's Senate president said she will propose labeling for foods containing genetically modified ingredients as part of an economic package. The proposal would support constitutional articles protecting native corn and banning GM grain cultivation.
It has not been enacted.
Labeling rules could reduce demand for GM-derived food products in Mexico, a modest long-term negative for US corn and soymeal demand if implemented.
After 310 past bearish policy events, CORN moved a median +0.3% over 5 sessions (54% higher; middle half -1.4% to +1.9%), and +0.6% over 20.
