> Western Canadian feedlots are paying record prices for feed barley, reported at $430-$455 per tonne delivered in January. Imported U.S. corn was available at $410-$430 per tonne delivered in southern Alberta, which is making corn competitive in western Canadian feed channels.

## Why it matters

Barley's high price is rationing demand and pushing buyers toward U.S. corn, which lowers barley demand while lifting corn imports. Feedlot competitiveness is expected to favor U.S. feedlots until September.
