GCMA estimates that Mexico will produce 23.5 million tonnes of corn in 2026 against consumption of 48.2 million, a self-sufficiency rate of about 49%. Imports are projected to reach 24.8 million tonnes by year-end, with production falling due to high costs and reduced planted area.
Rising import needs support demand for US corn and feed grains from Mexico's livestock sector. The projected import growth is a steady, bullish factor for corn exports.
After 1,040 past bullish report events, CORN moved a median +0.5% over 5 sessions (62% higher; middle half -0.9% to +2.0%), and +0.8% over 20.
