Mexico issued a new decree on Monday banning GM white corn for food while temporarily allowing GM corn for feed and industrial use. The decree sets no time frame for blocking feed corn imports.
The US exported 15.4 million tonnes of corn to Mexico in 2022.
With feed-corn imports allowed for now, the immediate volume risk to US corn exports is limited. The lack of a deadline keeps uncertainty over future feed-corn demand, which weighs on US corn prices.
After 439 past neutral policy events, CORN moved a median +0.1% over 5 sessions (51% higher; middle half -1.3% to +1.2%), and +1.1% over 20.
