U.S. corn shipments abroad topped one million tonnes in the reported week, up 86% from the previous week. USDA net export sales for 2026/27 were about 1.29 million tonnes, roughly 1% lower week over week but 10% above the prior four-week average; Mexico was the largest buyer with 381,300 tonnes.
Strong shipments and above-average sales indicate solid export demand, providing support for U.S. corn prices. Mexico’s leading position underscores the importance of that market to U.S. export flows.
