With the start of the trading week, corn contracts in both Paris and Chicago struggled to get back on track. The November date on Euronext recorded a loss of EUR 7.50 per tonne to EUR 332.75 per tonne. Above all, the weak export reports of around 450,000 tons for the past week are currently keeping the bulls in check. In addition, there is no tailwind from the wheat market. Maize sowing continues to lag behind the 46% average seen in recent years. Around 45% of the forecast area has currently been ordered.
