# Corn rises on strong demand, disease concerns — TradingView News

> CBOT corn futures firmed on Friday on strong international demand, with weekly U.S. export sales topping 2 million metric tons for a second straight week. Concerns over Tar Spot and Southern Rust in the U.S. Corn Belt and technical buying also supported prices. Soybeans rose on technical trading, though no confirmed Chinese purchases of U.S. soybeans were reported.

## Why it matters

Solid export demand and disease worries tighten the near-term corn outlook, supporting prices despite a large expected crop. Continued absence of Chinese soybean buying keeps soymeal and soy complex demand uncertain.
