France: Barley Export Grows In December, But Corn Export Is On The Fall

France exported 239,400 tonnes of corn and 458,700 tonnes of barley in December 2016, with corn exports down 18.4% year on year and barley up 8%. FranceAgriMer cut its 2016/17 corn export forecast to 4.895 million tonnes and barley to 4.485 million tonnes.

WHY IT MATTERS

Lower French corn and barley export forecasts reduce EU supply available to overseas buyers, a modestly supportive factor for feed grain prices.
