Rail remains operating normally during COVID-19, keeping US corn and sorghum moving by southern rail to Mexico, which relies on rail for corn deliveries. Shuttle trains of 75 to 110 covered hopper cars carry grain from origin to Mexico.
Uninterrupted rail movement supports steady US corn and sorghum export flows to Mexico, which limits logistics-driven upward pressure on prices.
After 284 past neutral logistics events, Corn moved a median -0.0% over 5 sessions (49% higher; middle half -1.3% to +1.4%), and -0.2% over 20.
