Mexico's health authority Cofepris and scientific council Conacyt formed a working group to assess risks of GM corn consumption, following a U.S. request for trade consultations. Mexico imports about 17 million tonnes of GM corn, mostly for animal feed.
A risk review could lead to restrictions on the large GM corn import flow to Mexico, which would be bearish for U.S. corn exports and prices.
After 683 past bearish trade events, Corn moved a median -0.2% over 5 sessions (47% higher; middle half -1.7% to +1.6%), and +0.3% over 20.
