Brazil Could Become A Major Corn Exporter To China In 2023 And Will Need To Control Production

The China has reviewed its trade relationship with Brazil regarding corn and found itself needing to purchase the grain, given the war in Ukraine against Russia. Therefore, Brazil is moving towards becoming a major corn exporter to China. However, this trade relationship has brought some demands, mainly for phytosanitary control to prevent pests and diseases in the grains.

Since this control procedure had not yet been adopted for the winter crop, the forecast is that corn will only be exported to China in 2023. This is because the summer crop will start already within the standards requested by China to purchase corn from Brazil. Thus, the harvest will be available in the first months of 2023.

Brazil’s Domestic Corn Market Prepares To Meet China’s Demands

This new agreement between the countries has brought significant movement in Brazil’s private corn market to meet the demand for exports. Later this month, a meeting is scheduled among potential exporters of Brazilian grain, where the main quality parameters to be followed in the summer crop will be discussed. The Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation (Embrapa) is also addressing the matter with the government.

Drought In The United States And The War In Ukraine Favor Brazil In Corn Exports

China imports a significant portion of its corn from the United States and Ukraine, its largest suppliers. However, the United States is experiencing a drought that could cut up to 70% of the corn supplied to China. Additionally, Ukraine is in a state of war against Russia, and its supply is interrupted.

Therefore, China’s fears regarding the shortfall of this grain have led them to reconsider purchasing grain from Brazil. The agreement had been suspended due to phytosanitary issues and pests in the crops. The countries have already finalized an agreement for over 200,000 tons for September 2022, and millions of additional tons are expected to be negotiated for 2023.

Corn Could Become A Great Opportunity For Rural Producers In Brazil, But It Could Impact The Meat Sector

Our country currently ranks third in the world among the largest corn producers and is likely to see significant growth with the start of exports to China. However, with the supply of one of the main grains used in the meat production chain, the sector may be affected. After all, those responsible will need to invest more in feed, considering the low amount of corn for domestic manufacturing.

Therefore, it is essential to think about a strategic plan to schedule purchases and mitigate risks in order to avoid greater damage to the domestic market. Nonetheless, the power of Brazilian agribusiness is breaking barriers and conquering the international market. This is just the beginning, as we also have peanuts and sesame in the pipeline to reach new parameters.
