CBOT corn futures hit a 6-1/2-year high on Wednesday, extending gains to a 13th straight session. Argentina's agriculture ministry said it would suspend corn exports until March 1 to protect domestic supplies, and dry South American weather added to supply concerns.
March corn settled at $4.74-1/2 a bushel, the highest most-active level since May 2014.
Argentina is a major corn exporter, and a suspension of about 4 million tonnes removes supply from the world market during a dry spell. This tightens global corn availability and supports higher feed corn prices.
