Flash sale potential for corn builds despite recent ‘dismal’ exports

An ag economist says a ‘dismal’ couple of weeks for U.S. corn exports might continue but potential for some large ‘flash’ sales is building.

The University of Missouri’s Ben Brown said traditional U.S. corn buyers like Mexico, Korea and Japan are still buying, but expectations aren’t being filled in other notable markets.

“China being one,” Brown said. “They’re still importing U.S. corn, but they’re not importing lots of U.S. corn like what we had anticipated.
