China has a two-way impact on corn farmers.
Angus Kelly with the National Corn Growers Association tells Brownfield China’s demand for corn this past year was a boon for U.S. farmers, but questions remain on how long it can be sustained.
“China has stockpiled about 50 percent of the world’s grains if you can imagine, and about 69 percent of that is corn alone so they’re sitting on huge inventories, but they need it because of their hog herds,” he explains.
