Drought in India has pushed sorghum (jowar) and maize prices well above their government minimum support prices. Poultry operators face losses, and industry bodies are seeking relief from a 60% import duty on maize.
Indian drought-driven shortfalls lift domestic feed grain prices and raise pressure to cut import duties, which could eventually draw in imported corn and sorghum.
After 1,465 past bullish weather events, Corn moved a median +0.2% over 5 sessions (54% higher; middle half -1.4% to +1.9%), and +0.9% over 20.
