Activists in Mexico are pushing to extend the country's ban on genetically modified corn to cover imports, not just cultivation. Mexico already bans GM corn planting but continues to import large volumes from the United States.
Mexico is a major buyer of US corn, so any move to restrict GM imports could threaten a key export flow and pressure US corn prices and feed grain demand.
After 310 past bearish policy events, CORN moved a median +0.3% over 5 sessions (54% higher; middle half -1.4% to +1.9%), and +0.6% over 20.
