Export contracts boost China's corn prices

 

China's corn prices were higher in March, boosted by an increase in the number of export contracts signed. Market sentiments were also lifted when the National Development and Reform Commission issued a directive that set an export quota, as well as the promise of financial assistance. Analysts expect the domestic corn market to continue showing better price performance.
