# Brazil is keeping the corn it could not ship

> Conab cut its 2026/27 Brazilian corn export forecast by 3 million tonnes to 40.9 million and moved that corn into stocks, which it expects to reach 20.9 million tonnes. Brazil shipped 17.9 million tonnes from June to October, down a quarter year on year, while the USDA has treated the same missing exports as domestic use.

## Why it matters

Brazil holding more corn domestically means less export supply to China and Japan, which is supportive for competitor corn prices. Large domestic stocks also cap Brazilian prices, so the net effect is bearish for Brazilian corn.
