Four U.S. grain and seed organizations complained to the USTR that Mexico’s constitutional reform and proposed legislation could preserve restrictions on genetically modified corn imports despite a 2024 USMCA panel ruling. They argue that the rules could allow Mexican authorities to impose assessments or limits on corn used for feed and industrial purposes.
The article says Mexico is forecast to import 27.7 million tonnes of corn in 2026–27.
Potential restrictions could disrupt a major outlet for U.S. corn, while continued Mexican import demand supports export prospects if access remains open. The dispute also raises uncertainty over future trade and compliance costs.
