Today is 23 April 2022. The following are the main contents of today's broadcast:
According to the data of USDA, this week, private exporters sold 65,438+03.47 million tons of corn to buyers in China. This purchasing data is also the third time that China has purchased more than one million tons of corn from the United States in a single day since this month, ranking among the top ten in the history of China purchasing corn from the United States in a single day.
More data show that on October 29th, 2026, China purchased 2 108000 tons of corn from the United States, 5438+0, setting a new high for American corn export in 30 years, second only to the largest single-day corn purchase of 3.72 million tons set by the Soviet Union before October 9th.
Since 20021,China has surpassed Mexico to become the largest corn importer in the world.
From June 5438 to March this year, China imported 765,438+million tons of corn, including 2.96 million tons from the United States and 4 million tons from Ukraine.
In fact, according to the data we have learned, since mid-March, with Ukrainian grain exports blocked, China buyers have purchased corn from the United States more frequently.
According to the preliminary statistics of industry organizations, the Ukrainian corn purchased by China buyers may be between 8 million and100000 tons, and nearly 5 million tons have been shipped so far, which means that at least 3 million tons of Ukrainian corn may be difficult to be shipped smoothly in recent days.
Also affected may be 2-3 million tons of Ukrainian barley, which is the main reason why China buyers have increased their purchases of American corn in recent days.
Because, judging from the current domestic corn market, before the listing in September this year, the supply of new corn in China was still very tight.
According to market monitoring information, today's purchase price of Baolingbao corn in Yucheng, Shandong Province 1.405 yuan/kg, up 5%; Lihua 1.4 yuan/kg, up 1.5 points; Heilongjiang Chengfu 1.345 yuan/kg, up 1 point.
It is worth noting that after the recent resumption of circulation in Jinzhou Port in the north, traders began to make high-profile quotations, and the current quotation has reached 1.425 yuan.
In addition, the news from Yi Hui also shows that in recent days, China buyers not only increased their purchases of American corn and sorghum, but also frequently purchased corn substitutes such as dried cassava and broken rice in the surrounding areas.
In particular, the import market of broken rice used to be mainly India-Pakistan market, but now broken rice from Myanmar is also exported to China.
With regard to the spring sowing of corn, the relevant departments of our country have repeatedly stressed the need to stabilize the corn planting area, combine the epidemic prevention and control, and do a good job in guiding farmers' spring sowing and supplying agricultural materials at the grassroots level.
It is reported that more than 300 gas stations in Gansu Province of PetroChina ensure market demand through multi-channel distribution of chemical fertilizers.
While China's market is vigorously ensuring the supply of corn, the price of edible oil in the international market has risen sharply again.
It is reported that Indonesia, one of the world's largest palm oil exporters, announced on the weekend that the export of edible oil and raw materials was temporarily tight, which led to the tension in the vegetable oil market in the international market.
According to the daily data of grain and oil, palm oil accounts for 35% of the global vegetable oil consumption, and it is truly the largest oil product.
In terms of use, palm oil is widely used in food industry and daily chemical products besides home cooking. Large enterprises, including Procter & Gamble, Unilever, Nestle and Oreo manufacturer Ziyi International, are the main buyers of palm oil, and palm oil is still an important raw material for producing biofuels under the current high global crude oil price.
Among them, Indonesia is the largest palm oil producer in the world, accounting for 60% of the global production.
Previously, the export of Ukrainian sunflower oil, which accounts for 3% of the global vegetable oil supply, was blocked, which led to a tight supply of edible oil in Europe. Now the world's largest palm oil exporter restricts its exports, which makes the market supply full of variables.
It is predicted that the price of edible oil at home and abroad will fluctuate greatly in recent days.
