Mexico's agri-food trade surplus fell 13.4% in January to September 2026, to $3.871 billion, according to GCMA. Imports rose 5% to $36.017 billion while exports rose 2.8% to $39.888 billion, with corn and soybeans among the main purchases.
Rising Mexican imports of corn and soybeans point to firm import demand from a major buyer, which can support U.S. corn and soybean prices. The effect is gradual and based on past data.
After 729 past bullish trade events, Corn moved a median +0.4% over 5 sessions (56% higher; middle half -1.1% to +1.8%), and +0.5% over 20.
