View PricingCorn Prices to Lose 10% in 2022, U.S. Exports Double to $16.5B
IndexBox has just published a new report: 'U.S. - Maize - Market Analysis, Forecast, Size, Trends and Insights. Here is a summary of the report's key findings.
In 2022, the average annual maize price is forecast to drop by 10% y-o-y due to higher global production and lower demand from Asia, after growing by 57% y-o-y to $260 per ton last year. Thanks to rising corn prices and increased demand for feed grains in Canada, U.S. maize export sales reached $16.5B in January-October 2021, doubling compared to the same period a year earlier.
According to World Bank's data, the average annual corn price grew by 57% y-o-y to $260 per ton in 2021. This year, it is expected to decrease by 10% y-o-y with higher output and lower demand for feed use in Asia. At the same time, this forecast is subject to several risks, including explosive energy and fertilizer prices, high freight rates, biofuel policies and weather conditions.
Rising corn prices and high demand for feed grains in Canada stimulated the growth of export value from the U.S. Throughout January-October 2021, total U.S. maize supplies reached 60M tons, expanding by 30% compared to the same previous year. In value terms, American corn exports grew twofold, reaching a record $16.5B. USDA predicts that U.S. maize sales to Canada will rise ninefold, surpassing 3M tons in 2022. High prices for feed barley in Canada are set to propel the growth of demand for substitutes, including corn.
