U.S. Corn Exports Land on High End of Estimates

Dow Jones04-09

By Kirk Maltais

Export sales of U.S. corn landed near the high side of analyst estimates this week, according to Department of Agriculture data.

In its latest weekly report published Thursday, the USDA said that for the week ended April 2, export sales of U.S. corn totaled 1.37 million metric tons across the 2025/26 and 2026/27 marketing years. That's close to the high end of forecasts from analysts surveyed by The Wall Street Journal this week, who forecast sales between 900,000 tons and 1.6 million tons.

Soybean and wheat sales totaled on the low end of forecasts this week. Soybean sales totaled 295,400 tons and wheat sales were 254,300 tons. For both, surveyed analysts had forecast sales to land between 200,000 tons and 600,000 tons.

Japan was the lead buyer of corn for the week, at 632,400 tons. Venezuela was the top buyer for wheat, and China was the lead buyer for soybeans.

CBOT grain futures are higher in pre-market trade. Corn is up 0.5%, soybeans rise 0.5%, and wheat is up 1.2%.
