Thailand’s agriculture ministry told the US-ASEAN Business Council that companies importing feed ingredients, including corn and soybeans, should first buy Thai crops at fair prices. Imports should be scheduled outside Thailand’s main harvest season; US companies including Cargill and Tyson said they would cooperate and plan imports when domestic supplies are short.
Prioritizing domestic crops and limiting imports during the August–November corn harvest could support Thai producer prices and reduce the availability of imported feed ingredients during that period. Imports remain possible when domestic supplies are insufficient and outside the harvest window.
