Ukrainian corn has secured several early deals with Vietnam, with Panamax cargoes sold for February and March shipments at high $250s CIF. Offers have since been quoted at $262/mt CIF, while South American corn to Vietnam rose to $270/mt CFR amid Argentine production cuts and dry weather.
Rising South American and US corn prices make Ukrainian origin more competitive in Asia, supporting Black Sea export demand and capping gains in Asian corn prices.
