World Grain profiles Mexico's agriculture sector ahead of Claudia Sheinbaum's October 1 inauguration. Mexico has free trade agreements with more than 40 countries and corn is its largest crop, with 2024-25 production estimated at 25 million tonnes, up 7%.
Sheinbaum has said she will grow the agri-food surplus.
Higher projected Mexican corn output could modestly reduce import needs, though Mexico is still expected to import large volumes.
After 770 past neutral report events, Corn moved a median +0.2% over 5 sessions (54% higher; middle half -1.1% to +1.6%), and +0.7% over 20.
