10 Countries That Export the Most Corn in the World

3. Argentina

Exports value: $3.1 billion

Market share: 11.10%

The second South American country on the list, Argentina has been known as an important agricultural country. The exports were stable in the 2010-2015 period, hovering between 1.6 and 1.8 million metric tons. This year, however, export controls will be lifted. A long-standing export tax on corn will be abolished and that will unleash Argentinian corn into the world market. The consequences may be quite serious for producers who won’t be able to adapt to a much lower price.
