US feed grain exports to free trade agreement partners rose about 24% over ten marketing years and hit a record 49.6 million tons in 2015-16. Exports to these partners were up 27% in the first eight months of 2016-17, with corn shipments up 36%.
Strong demand from FTA partners supports US corn export flows and firm corn prices, which feed buyers should track in their procurement planning.
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.
