U.S. corn exports to China in the 2020/21 marketing year reached a record of over 21.4 million metric tons, up 952% from the prior year. China bought nearly one-third of all U.S. corn exported that year, driven by purchases under the Phase One agreement.
Record Chinese buying tightens U.S. corn export availability and supports corn prices, which raises feed costs for buyers.
After 729 past bullish trade events, Corn moved a median +0.4% over 5 sessions (56% higher; middle half -1.1% to +1.8%), and +0.5% over 20.
