Ukraine’s corn could benefit from US tariffs, analyst says

Kivers – Ukrainian corn, the key element of the country’s grain can use the tariffs imposed by the United States, as it is able to partially replace us with corn if sanctions are forced.

Ukraine is a world-growing and exporter of corn.

US President Donald Trump has announced the minimum tariff for most of the United States in most of the United States, including the goods, including China’s products, which will most likely be counteracted by prices and demand reduction.

“If key importers are at the end of the United States, it set tariffs, it will open a large window of possible opportunities for alternative suppliers,” the statement said.

“Ukrainian corn is in a strong position here. Competitive prices, stable logistics and close ties with the European Union and Asian markets, “he added.

The counseling said that Brazil is “first”, but its harvest simply cannot cover the whole requirement, and it is there when Ukraine “can walk its share.”

In 2024, Ukraine produced 32 million meters of corn in 2023 and 26 million tons.

This year, farmers will probably increase the area sown for corn, as corn export prices are profitable.
