Below is an abstract of the report:

 

 

China corn prices in February stable in light trade
 

China's corn prices were stable in light trading throughout February. Most farmers suspended sales in the weeks before the Spring Festival but transactions are expected to pick up in mid-March. The recurrence of the bird flu in South-East Asia could prompt farmers in China to postpone stocking their farm animal inventory. Given this prospect, demand for corn by feed, livestock and poultry industries would not pick up strongly.
