The U.S. Grains & BioProducts Council escorted a 19-member South Korean feed and food corn buyer delegation on a multi-state tour of the U.S. corn export chain in September 2026, covering farms, ethanol facilities, grain handling sites and Pacific Northwest export terminals, as U.S. corn holds more than 80% of South Korea's import market so far this year.
The U.S. Grains & BioProducts Council escorted a Mexican buying group representing the dairy, cattle, swine, poultry and white corn sectors on a tour of Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas in early September 2026 to develop direct sourcing relationships with cooperatives, elevators and rail stakeholders. The group collectively purchases around 400,000 metric tons of U.S. corn and 80,000 metric tons of DDGS annually.
The U.S. Grains & BioProducts Council has released an evidence-based factsheet asserting that U.S. corn delivers higher yields, lower greenhouse gas emissions, faster processing times, and better feed conversion rates than corn from other major producing countries, with estimated financial benefits for wet millers and broiler producers.
