U.S. waterborne commerce statistics reported 2024 freight-tonnage growth of 15.2% for the Mid-America Port Commission and 5.9% for the Illinois Waterway Ports Commission. The Upper Mississippi and Illinois rivers recorded increases of 4.2% and 1.2%, respectively.
Higher port tonnage indicates greater use of inland waterways, including routes important to the Corn Belt supply chain. The report gives no commodity-specific figures or evidence of a price-moving supply disruption.
