# 20 Feed Ingredient User Associations Submit Third Letter to Supapong Urging Urgent Meeting of the Corn Policy Committee to Address Price Surge

> Twenty associations of animal-feed ingredient users sent a third letter to Deputy PM and Commerce Minister Supajee Suthammapun, chair of Thailand's corn policy committee (NBKP), urging an urgent meeting. They cite super El Niño floods and storms that delayed the corn harvest and damaged crops in some areas, tightening supply and pushing prices nearly 2 baht/kg above the 9.80 baht/kg Commerce Ministry reference. Imports for 2026 are also reported down 15-20%, with only 150,000 tonnes of the 570,000-tonne 0% tariff quota from the US actually shipped.

## Why it matters

Tighter Thai domestic corn and delayed import policy for 2027 raise feed costs for Thai millers and point to firmer regional corn demand for imports, supporting corn prices in the Thai market.
