An experienced swine nutrition consultant warns that new-crop corn may contain mycotoxins after a season of drought, hail and flooding. Because contamination can be unevenly distributed and toxins occur at very low concentrations, a negative test may reflect inadequate sampling rather than a clean load.
Mycotoxin risks can reduce feed quality and livestock performance, prompting more testing, screening or rejection of affected corn. This may increase the cost of usable feed but does not establish a broad market price direction.
